What People Are Saying:
"Exactly what I've been looking for in the construction industry! Their values and mission align with my own. Through the Construction Business Bootcamp, the sharing of knowledge and triple bottom line perspective with the greater construction industry is critical to beating climate change and overcoming stigmas and inequality in this profession.”
— Eliot Nolter, East Spruce Design/Build
“I signed up for the Bootcamp to help me understand how a successful business would operate. That is what this course does, it gives an overview. Each of the sessions could be, maybe should be, a course in itself. It was a great fit for me and I do not regret spending the time or money.”
— Kerry Koskinen, Retrofuture Remodeling
