Please see information below regarding a paid educator externship opportunity with AGC MA. We are excited that this outstanding opportunity is available again in 2023!
We have an endorsement from one of our colleagues, Heidi Riccio:
“I did this two years ago. I cannot recommend it enough. It is a week of learning the commercial side of the construction business.”

AGC MA invites you to apply to its Building Advancement Externship. The week-long program offers an immersive experience in the commercial construction industry for 10-12 educators and academic leaders through tours of company offices, active job sites, and the North Atlantic States Carpenters Training Facility. The externship has been designed to offer a background on the business of commercial construction, an overview of field training and safety programs, and information on project management and industry innovations. The externship will be conducted August 14-18, 2023.
The AGC MA Building Advancement Externship will offer unprecedented access to leading commercial construction industry contractors and lay the foundation for an ongoing relationship between your school and AGC MA members. In addition, the Massachusetts Construction Advancement Program (MCAP) has provided a grant funding stipend of $3,000 – $4,000 per educator to be paid at the end of the program.
