Virtual Design and Construction
S4CA offers a workforce program which teaches a safe and environmentally conscious method of developing the built environment through a PBL Lab style of AEC Teamwork (project-based learning) to concepts of and effective use of Virtual Design and Construction.
Foothill College Bachelor of Science in Building Trades Management
Foothill College has received approval to offer a Bachelor of Science degree in Building Trades Management. The degree was approved by the California Community Colleges Board of Governors in February. This program aligns with Foothill’s focus on workforce development and responds to a statewide demand for management-trained construction professionals.
The new bachelor’s degree provides an affordable pathway for diverse students, including working adults and place-bound learners, who cannot access California’s traditional four-year universities due to cost, geography, impaction or life responsibilities. The Building Trades Management Bachelor of Science degree is designed to create a clear path for registered apprentices and journey-level workers to transition from technical training into supervisory, management and leadership roles. The curriculum focuses on project management, workforce supervision, building technologies and industry safety standards.
