Enhancing the success of women in the construction industry!
About us
TO ENHANCE THE SUCCESS OF WOMEN IN THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY. In 1953, women represented a small fraction of the construction industry. In order to promote the industry as a viable career for women and to enhance the careers of women within the industry, sixteen women in Fort Worth, Texas founded a non-profit organization known as Women in Construction. In 1955, the group received a National Charter and is now known as the National Association of Women in Construction (NAWIC). NAWIC now spans across the United States and is represented in various countries throughout the World, with International Affiliates in Canada, the United Kingdom, South Africa, New Zealand, and Australia. As NAWIC has grown, it's purpose has evolved. Members have immediate access to an invaluable network of women in various stages of their careers. This network provides mentoring, professional development, education, and community outreach opportunities to further enhance the careers of women in the construction industry. The South Atlantic Region of NAWIC is one of eight regions across the United States. It encompasses twelve Chapters throughout Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina. The South Atlantic Region, previously called Region 11, was formed in 1966.

🌟 Happy National Apprenticeship Week! 🌟 This week, we celebrate the power of apprenticeships to open doors, build skills, and shape careers. Apprenticeships provide incredible opportunities for people to learn hands-on, gain real-world experience, and grow within their industries. They offer the chance to earn while learning and make an impact from day one. Whether you're just starting out or looking to change careers, consider the benefits of an apprenticeship. To all the apprentices out there - keep pushing forward! Your hard work and commitment are inspiring, and your journey is one of growth and achievement. #NationalApprenticeshipWeek #CareerGrowth #FutureSkills #ApprenticeshipJourney #LearningByDoing
