KBR Inc.'s "Camo to KBR: Veterans Recruitment and Training Program" has received a prestigious Workforce Development Award from the Construction Users Roundtable (CURT).
Camo to KBR is a comprehensive initiative to hire, train, develop and transition military service members into the next generation of craft professionals and create leaders for KBR and the overall construction industry.
Camo to KBR includes on-site project recruitment and training of veterans, as well as partnerships with veterans organizations like NextOp in Houston and with NCCER on its military credentialing reciprocity program.
KBR also collaborated with Ft. Polk base command, Soldier For Life and Central Louisiana Technical College to create a pipefitting training program for active-duty soldiers transitioning to civilian life.
