Applications Are Open for Project Ascend — Don't Miss Your Spot
Apply now and secure your seat for the 2026 cohort: https://l3rvfel1f9n.typeform.com/Estimating2026
Are you a BIPOC contractor, trades professional, journeyperson, or construction entrepreneur looking to sharpen your estimating and bidding skills? ACCA's Project Ascend Estimating & Bidding Course is back for 2026 — and seats are limited.
This hybrid program runs Saturdays from September 12 to November 21, combining in-person workshops with online sessions. You'll cover everything from estimating fundamentals and quantity take-offs to bid documents, labour costs, mechanical systems, and a full simulated bid capstone. The cohort wraps up with a Speed Mentorship & Networking session where participants can connect with peers from their cohort and industry contacts, which can lead to subcontracting opportunities, referrals, or future collaborations.
Both beginner and advanced streams are available, so whether you're just starting out or looking to expand to bid on commercial projects, there's a place for you. Past participants say the course gave them the technical foundation and confidence to compete for bigger opportunities, and we want the same for you.

The BYAP Entrepreneurship in Construction Pitch Competition marked more than the end of a program — it reflected the growth, resilience, and ambition of every participant involved.
On April 25th, participants pitched their business ideas to an independent panel of judges in front of friends, family, industry leaders, and community supporters.
Project partners and stakeholders consistently remarked about the remarkable energy and drive within this cohort. Over the course of the program, they refined their business concepts, strengthened their entrepreneurial skills, and demonstrated a deep commitment to building successful businesses in the construction industry.
We are excited to continue supporting these entrepreneurs as they grow their businesses and expand the footprint of BIPOC contractors across the Canadian construction industry.
We especially thank the Black Opportunity Fund for funding this program, and George Brown Polytechnic for providing instruction, training and facilities throughout the program.
The future of the industry becomes stronger when opportunity is expanded.
