Help NRCA Empower Students

January 13, 2022 at 9:00 a.m.

Dear roofing professional—

One of NRCA’s initiatives in 2022 is to help SkillsUSA, an organization whose mission is to prepare and empower students for careers in the trades, to incorporate roofing into its national construction skills competition.

SkillsUSA is deeply ingrained in trades education in all 50 states and serves more than 330,000 students and instructors annually, but it currently does not include roofing as part of its offerings. We would like to change that.

To help us drive this initiative, we ask that you complete a short three-question survey. View a brief video about SkillsUSA here. And learn more about the competition here.

Please complete the survey by January 20. If you have questions about NRCA’s involvement with SkillsUSA, contact John Esbenshade, NRCA’s director of workforce development, at jesbenshade@nrca.net.
