Boys & Girls Club of the Los Angeles Harbor (BGCLAH)

Welding and Construction

After proving their success in the Saturday Year-Round Skilled Trades Program pilot, BGCLAH partnered again with Dynamic Education to offer 24 high school students and 18 transitioned-aged youth alumni, the opportunity to earn high-value industry-based credentials in welding and construction during the summer. 

In June 2024, the first cohort of Construction students completed the Saturday Year-Round pilot and took their NCCER credentialing exam.  100% of the cohort passed their exam!

As part of the BGCLAH Career Bound program, students are assigned case managers who provide one-on-one support to promote high school graduation, subsequent job placement and employment success.
