I have to admit a couple of things. Like nearly every remodeling business owner, I have been complaining about our inability to find and hire good quality carpenters, and that it seems no young people are pursuing the trades as a career. I never did a single thing about changing that outcome- until now (actually since last summer 2017). For many, many years, while being a NARI member and while serving as a NARI National Officer, I have been hearing about SKILLSUSA from Dan Taddei.

There’s a difference when remodelers are committed to constant improvements.
My job gives me the chance to get to know a lot of remodelers. I’ve spent many days shadowing companies from all over the country, and I’ve met with more contractors than I can count either individually or as part of a peer-to-peer group.
