On April 5th 2024 Dr. Azhar Mahmood Coordinator for the Construction Management program and Larry Anderson from Enrollment Services at HCCC visited New Jersey City University and gave a presentation to the cohort of NJ Youth Corps about careers in construction industry.
New Jersey Youth Corps-Jersey City, located at New Jersey City University since 1988, aims to restore young adults' dignity through academic instruction and community service. As one of the largest youth service and conservation corps in the U.S., it offers year-round voluntary programs for young adults aged 16-25. Guided by mentors, youth crews undertake diverse community projects and receive a stipend during their tenure.
It was a great and successful event. Students enjoyed it. A total of 15 students attended the event and 9 of them enrolled into HCCC Construction Management program after the presentation.
