Construction Mentorship Program (for High School students)
About The Position
As a Construction Mentorship Program student with Ferguson Construction, you will gain the hands-on experience learning each skilled trade in the business. Mentoring is a critical part of the success of our program. Our evaluation process allows our supervisors to ensure the right amount of guidance and training on the jobsite. The program is designed to provide you with practical construction experience that will supplement your education and expand your knowledge of the construction industry through firsthand project involvement. As an Intern, you will not be a "trainee". You will be working with Full Time employees as they provide guidance and training on various tasks. You will be involved with and have specific project responsibilities assigned to you. Daily activities will enable you to experience applicable processes and management methods firsthand. Supervisors and project staff will structure your work efforts to help you learn about your area of interest while you contribute directly to the completion of a quality project. At the end of the intern's time at Ferguson, they will have a better understanding of how projects are managed, and the tools used to successfully complete projects. This position begins Summer 2026.
