Talent Training + Development Map

HOUSING IS A CAREER NOT A GIG, AND WE NEED MORE TALENT.

This is no surprise, but it’s high time for a more coordinated effort across the industry to help fill the labor pipeline. 

Once we’ve helped change the narrative (we’re working on tools to do just that), the next step is taking people from interest to action.

Like we did with our Off-Site Heat Map, we’re creating a one-stop-shop where people who are interested in joining our industry can identify opportunities for training, mentorships, apprenticeships, sponsored training and four-year degrees throughout the U.S. that will help set them up for success.
