The Construct My Future Internship Program is a paid, credit-earning opportunity for high school students (ages 17+) to explore hands-on careers in the construction industry. Through a unique rotation model, students spend 3–4 weeks at a time learning from various industry professionals, gaining real-world experience and a solid understanding of different trades.
Our goal is to enroll 60+ students across 3 OKCPS and Moore, OK schools and starting plans to expand into more schools and districts. The program piloted in the 2024-2025 school year with 37 students across 2 Oklahoma City Public Schools, preparing to be the next generation of builders, engineers, project managers, electricians, and more.
Students rotate through multiple trade employers during the school year while receiving real-world experience, course credit, and a paycheck. Construct My Future handles all coordination—making it simple for companies to host students.
