Perhaps the part of this program that is most important to industry personnel is the National Registry of students. This registry will list students who have successfully completed Residential Construction Academy Series instruction in credentialed programs, and provide easy access to verification of skills and competencies achieved.

Housed within NAHB’s Building Careers Job Bank, the National Registry links construction industry employers directly to an online database of qualified potential employees. Employers can search the database by any number of criteria, including programs completed. The registry also allows students to access their completion history throughout the United States. Students also have the option to place their resume on NAHB’s Job Bank, visited by industry employers nationwide.

Students who have completed instruction in a credentialed program can go to www.nahb.org/careers to enroll. This is a free and easy service which can help expose students to job opportunities in the industry. To register, simply choose “Job Seekers”, “Advertise My Resume”, and then be sure to complete the National Registry section of the registration form.
