No outcomes reported for this program

About a third of California programs report nothing. That is a fact about the program's reporting, not evidence that it works or does not.

The job this trains for

This describes the jobs people do, not the classes this program teaches. It comes from the U.S. Department of Labor, which asks people already doing the work. The Department publishes it in English only, so the job names and the sentences below stay in English on this page.

Where California publishes a separate figure for Fresno MSA (Fresno and Madera Counties), it appears beneath the statewide one. Statewide stays the headline: people who train here do not necessarily work here.

Miscellaneous Construction and Related Workers

The Department publishes no description and no task list for this job. That is a gap in the federal record, not a sign that the work is unusual.

These figures describe a wider group of jobs
California publishes no separate pay or openings figures for the occupation this program trains for (47-4099). It reports that work only inside Miscellaneous Construction and Related Workers, the larger category the occupation classification files it under, so the pay, openings and projected change below belong to that whole category. Read them as the range this job sits inside, not as a figure for the job itself.

What this pays in Fresno MSA (Fresno and Madera Counties)

Each bar runs from the lowest-paid tenth to the highest-paid tenth. The darker middle is where half the people are, and the line is the median.

The federal Bureau of Labor Statistics' 2026 figures for Fresno MSA (Fresno and Madera Counties) beside the same figures for the whole state. A region can sit well below or above the statewide spread, and the statewide number is the one most often quoted — so where they differ, the local row is the one that describes the work near this program.

Not shown for this programCalifornia does publish a usual entry requirement for Miscellaneous Construction and Related Workers, but it is one answer for the whole group and can name a degree this program's own occupation never asks for. It is left out here rather than shown beside a program it may not describe. That is this site's decision, not something the provider failed to report.

California publishes no separate figure for this job in Fresno MSA. The statewide figures above are the only ones there are.

This counts people already doing this job, across the whole United States. Every other figure on this page is California's, and the federal government publishes no state version of this one. It is what people happen to have, not a rule about who gets hired. A small row does not mean you would be turned away, and a large one is not a promise of a job.

Program details

This is a hybrid or blended program providing both in-person and online instruction.

The construction curriculum is designed to provide students with hands-on training strengthened with technical information that will prepare them for entry into the construction industry or for their own personal construction projects. Specialty courses are available in Plumbing and Electrical to give students a greater depth of knowledge in construction.

Someone else may be able to pay for this

This program was on California's Eligible Training Provider List when the state last reported it to the U.S. Department of Labor (2026-08-04). Programs on that list can be paid for through an Individual Training Account. Listings are renewed periodically and can lapse, so a program listed when the state last reported may not be listed today. Ask before you rely on it.

How this gets paid for, and what to ask

Whether a person can have a program paid for is decided by their local workforce development board and the America's Job Center staff who interview them — not by this site, and not by the training provider. California has 45 local workforce development areas and each sets its own policies, so the answer can differ between two people in neighboring counties. Nothing here is a promise of funding or a determination of eligibility.

The rules cited here, and the state and federal sites linked to, are published in English.
