Veterans In Construction: Lunch & Learn

August 20, 2026 11:30 AM - 1:00 PM (CDT)

Description


Building Stronger Teams Through Veteran Talent

Join AGC Houston and Adaptive Construction Solutions (ACS) for an informative Lunch & Learn focused on helping construction employers successfully recruit, onboard, develop, and retain military veterans within their organizations.

Veterans bring leadership, discipline, problem-solving abilities, and a strong work ethic to the workforce, making them an invaluable asset to the construction industry. However, many employers struggle with understanding how military experience translates into construction careers and how to best support veterans throughout their professional journey.

During this session, attendees will hear from Coy Dunn, Outreach Specialist with ACS Veteran Support Services, who will share practical strategies and real-world insights on:

  • Attracting and recruiting veteran candidates
  • Translating military experience into construction career pathways
  • Creating effective onboarding programs for veteran employees
  • Supporting veterans through career development and advancement opportunities
  • Building internal systems that improve employee engagement and long-term retention
  • Leveraging apprenticeship and workforce development programs to strengthen your talent pipeline

Who Should Attend?

  • Human Resources Professionals
  • Talent Acquisition & Recruiting Teams
  • Workforce Development Leaders
  • Operations & Project Managers
  • Company Executives & Owners
  • Anyone interested in strengthening veteran employment initiatives

Come enjoy lunch, expand your professional network, and discover actionable strategies to help your company build a stronger workforce while creating meaningful career opportunities for those who have served our country.
