WIST EVENTS & NEWS
WIST has partnered with the Capital Area Housing Partnership (CAHP) and local trade unions to bring you an opportunity to learn more about high-wage, in-demand construction jobs. Professional tradeswomen will be there to answer your questions about these exciting careers and share their own stories with you.
