Pre-Apprenticeship Certificate Training (PACT)
The Pre-Apprenticeship Certificate Training (PACT) curriculum is the building industry-validated construction curriculum specifically designed to teach at-risk and underserved populations including academically-challenged individuals.
HBI puts the PACT curriculum into operation in its HBI PACT programs: HBI PACT for Youth, HBI PACT for Adults, HBI PACT for Veterans and HBI PACT YouthBuild.
PACT features techniques and practices based on the NAHB Model Green Home Building Guidelines and aligns with the ICC-700 2008 National Green Building Standard™, the building industry’s rating system approved by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
PACT relies on a time-honored apprenticeship approach to learning craft skills, combining classroom instruction and hands-on training on a job site.
Skill Achievement Records (SARs) track competencies in eight trades: brick masonry, carpentry, electrical, facilities maintenance, landscaping, painting, plumbing and weatherization.
Contextual learning specific to each trade, safety, construction math and tool and material identification are part of the curriculum.
