Congrats Perry Tech – Always Excellent In Training Builders & Craftsmen

BIAW President Tracy Doriot says, "We’ve continued to grow our scholarship fund to encourage students to follow our path in the residential home-building industry...We know firsthand the satisfaction and success that comes from building the places people call home.”

“In this home… We do second chances. We do real. We do mistakes. We do I’m              sorry. We do loud really well. We do hugs. We do together best of all.”

Since its inception, BIAW has awarded over $670,000 in scholarships and grants to students who have demonstrated a passion and commitment to developing a career in the home building industry and the programs that educate them.  The BIAW is the voice of the housing industry as the state’s largest trade association with nearly 8,000 member companies responsible for roughly 188,000 jobs.  And those are good paying jobs too.

According to the Association for Career and Technical Education, construction is one of the top 5 industries for “good jobs” that pay a median income of $55,000+ without a bachelor’s degree.

Congrats to the scholarship winner and to Perry Tech for consistently leading the way in hands on education.

“May your home always be too small to hold all of your friends.”
