Residential Construction Career Day is all about hands-on career exploration. Students have the opportunity to use tools and equipment, participate in interactive activities, connect with local employers, and learn about apprenticeships, training opportunities, and careers within the residential construction industry.

For ten years, Residential Construction Career Day has brought local students face-to-face with the people doing the work that builds Cape Cod.

Students don’t simply hear about these careers. They see the work, try new skills, ask questions and meet local professionals who can show them what a future in the industry might look like.

On October 15, MassHire Cape & Islands Workforce Board and the Home Builders & Remodelers Association of Cape Cod will celebrate ten years of building those connections.

Mentorship has the power to inspire, empower, and create lasting impact and Ashley Irene Dufresne exemplifies that through her continued partnership with the CIWB.

In her own words: "What I love most about my partnership with CIWB is the opportunity to connect, learn, and grow alongside so many incredible women. Many of the events I've attended have allowed me to serve as a mentor, sharing my experiences as a business owner with young women who are beginning their own journeys. While I hope I've been able to offer guidance and encouragement, I often find that I learn just as much from them as they learn from me. I always leave feeling motivated to do more, give more, and continue supporting the incredible community around me."

Congratulations again to Ashley, one of the CIWB's 2026 Rising Star Award recipients. Thank you for your passion, generosity, and dedication to uplifting others. Your impact reaches far beyond your business, and we're honored to celebrate your well-deserved recognition.
