NRCA has released the latest episode of its podcast series, “RoofTalk with NRCA.”
Connecting with local CTE schools can be a great way to find roofing workers. During this episode, “School is in session,” Rebecca Eller-Molitas, NRCA’s director of CTE engagement; Sherri Miles, president of Miles Roofing Inc.; and Tim Stephens, vice president of operations at Architectural Sheet Metal Inc., discuss tips for fostering relationships with local educators. Topics include obstacles to connecting with CTE schools; what educators are looking for from the roofing industry; why contractors are hesitant to reach out to schools; how contractors can start getting involved; the role of SkillsUSA and its impact on the roofing industry; and real-world examples of how CTE programs have affected roofing companies.
