Our programs prepare men and women for a high-earning career in construction, no matter their age or life circumstances.
About us
At Construction Ready, we believe the skilled trades should be just as celebrated as careers requiring a four-year degree. That’s why we train people for great-paying, entry-level construction jobs — so they can earn a comfortable living, do work they enjoy, and build fulfilling careers without the burden of student loan debt. We’re a 501(c)3 non-profit organization created in 1993 as the Construction Education Foundation of Georgia (CEFGA). In 2022, we became Construction Ready, a name taken from our flagship construction training program. Our organization came together when leading construction industry leaders recognized a need for quality construction skills training in Georgia. Skilled labor was then — and remains now — a primary need in the construction industry.

Looking back on his experience in Construction Ready Pre-Apprenticeship training at Westside Works, Alan says seeing the big picture “is what kept me going. I was investing in myself – that’s how I looked at it. And the classmates I was with kind of made it easier.
