美国建筑业的熟练劳动力越来越短缺。随着婴儿潮一代准备离开劳动力市场，这个问题正以指数级的速度恶化。随着科学、技术、工程和数学课程成为美国教育部的首要任务，越来越多的年轻人正在接受高等教育并进入STEM劳动力市场。使用定量和定性的研究方法，本文提供了一个解释，为什么一个合乎逻辑的方法来缓解建筑业的劳动力短缺是采用职业计划，准备年轻人进入该行业类似于如何STEM计划被用来准备学生进入STEM职业。
There is a growing shortage of skilled labor in the United States construction industry. As the baby boomer generation prepares to leave the workforce, this problem is getting exponentially worse. As Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics programs have become the U.S. Department of Education’s top priority, more young adults are pursuing higher education and entering the STEM workforce. Using quantitative and qualitative research methodologies, this paper provides an explanation as to why a logical method to assuage the labor shortage in construction is to employ vocational programs that prepare young adults to enter the industry similar to how STEM programs are used to prepare students to enter STEM occupations.
