Construction Leaders Training

This training is intended for current and prospective Crew Leaders, Construction Supervisors, Project Directors, and Project Coordinators.

We will look at MDS house plans and best practices for construction and learn and practice construction skills. We will also discuss other topics such as finding work, planning ahead, and working with volunteers.

Training Schedule

Thursday, December 12: 8:30am-6pm Eastern

Friday, December 13: 8:30am-6pm Eastern

Registration will open for this training at the end of August. 

MDS Project Leadership Trainings are designed for people who have made a commitment to serve with MDS in a leadership capacity. New leaders who have not yet served on a project are strongly encouraged to attend. Leaders who currently serve on projects and have not attended a training for 3 years or more are also highly encouraged to attend. Additionally, Unit, Region, and MDS Board members may benefit from one or more of these trainings.

If you have not yet completed a Leadership Application and are still discerning whether serving as a leadership volunteer is the right fit for you, we recommend that you attend an Introduction to MDS Leadership Volunteering Zoom call to learn more before registering for a leadership training. Introduction to MDS Leadership Volunteering Zoom call dates and registration links can be found on the Events Page.
