Learn More About Kickstart
You don’t have to know your whole plan yet. You just need a place to start.
Kickstart is Crossland’s 8–10 week summer work experience for current high school juniors and seniors.
You’ll work alongside experienced crews, learn how real jobsites operate, and get hands-on experience in the construction trades. Full-time and part-time roles may be available.
By the end of the summer, you’ll have a better idea of what construction is, what you’re good at, and what you might want to do next.
