Contractor Development Program Overview

 

Contractor Development

We’re offering the Contractor Development Program.  This series has been developed and curated by Detroit Training Center instructors and community partners to educate and provide resources for new contractors at each step in the process of getting their construction company up and running. 

  Contractors will leave the series empowered to use the skills to grow their business, with the necessary network, connections to contract opportunities, and experience to make it on their own.

The Contractor Development Series will be delivered in a hybrid model with most education remote, providing students with the opportunity to learn directly from home, while complying with state regulations and providing a safe learning environment.
