From Construction Ready:
At Construction Ready, we believe the skilled trades should be just as celebrated as careers requiring a four-year degree. That’s why we train people for great-paying, entry-level construction jobs to earn a comfortable living, do work they enjoy, and build fulfilling careers without the burden of student loan debt.
We’re a 501(c)3 non-profit organization created in 1993 as the Construction Education Foundation of Georgia (CEFGA). In 2022, we became Construction Ready, a name taken from our flagship construction training program.
For nearly 30 years, we’ve helped people of all ages and backgrounds take advantage of opportunities in the skilled trades. Our organization came together when leading construction industry leaders recognized a need for quality construction skills training in Georgia. Skilled labor was then — and remains now — a primary need in the construction industry.
The largest NCCER accredited training organization in Georgia, Construction Ready is addressing immediate labor shortages with participants who are screened, trained, drug-free, and ready to work, while simultaneously realizing vital talent pipelines by cultivating a long-term workforce with youth from K12 and the CareerExpo.

ABOUT THE MAX PROVIDER PORTAL
The MAX Provider Portal was launched in 2014 to help local leaders gain a better understanding of metro Atlanta’s workforce ecosystem – namely, who is doing what, where, and for whom. The portal provides the most comprehensive picture of our workforce ecosystem. Providers in the portal are able to share information on the populations and geographies they serve, the services (job search & placement, post-employment services, supportive services, and soft skills training) they provide, the specific occupations and industries they support, and more. The MAX Provider Council oversees and informs the ongoing development of the MAX Provider Portal.
