"Having the opportunity to engage our students in the CIEF Design Build Competition® has been an amazing resource for student motivation, real-life exposure and assessment of their learned knowledge, skills and abilities. Participation in this event has helped encourage students that have shown interest in the building trades that they can follow their dreams and be successful. During the competition process, students develop skills in: organization, critical thinking, leadership, community engagement and project management. This event is, hands-down, the best opportunity for our program and our students to show themselves and our greater community what they are capable of." Mark Ferguson | Norte Vista High School Instructor |
"The Design Build Competition® allows our kids to see true job related work where multiple schools are working toward a goal. Design Build provides a chance for students to showcase the skills they’ve learned and mastered in our CTE classes in a setting that includes industry partners and future career pathway personnel. It’s a highlight and end-of-year goal for students to compete and perform well. Thanks to CIEF and it’s partners for all you do and the opportunity you provide us." Kurt Chapman | Sultana High School Instructor |
