how itimpacts the curriculum.IntroductionIt’s no secret that there is a great demand for workers in the building (aka construction) andtechnical skilled trades today – more than ever before. So before getting started, it may behelpful to understand why there is such a demand for these workers and why these trades arebecoming more attractive to more people. The sections below will answer these questions. Alsoprovided are brief discussions on what these disciplines encompass and what the jobopportunities are.Building And Technical Skilled Trades Workers Are In Large DemandAccording to the Associated General Contractors of America, 89% of construction contractorswere having difficulty finding trained workers; and 61% reported project delays

to four-year universities to studyengineering bring a diverse range of experiences and perspectives, which greatly contribute to thefield of engineering and help national and regional workforce development. However, thesestudents face specific challenges, referred to as the vertical transfer penalty, when they transfer tofour-year universities. This can lead to lower completion rates for community college starterscompared to students who start at four-year universities. The issue seems to be related to factorsregarding the students' experiences, institutional characteristics, and geographic location. Thisstudy marks the initial stage of a comprehensive research project aiming to compare historicaltransfer student data over the past two

disrupted by numerous services that have workedto diminish information asymmetry around the quality of used cars by revealing their history.Specifically, large data sets now exist containing detailed information about individual vehiclessuch as sales history, recall and warranty information, insurance claims, and accident history, e.g.,Autocheck (www.autocheck.com). Numerous online applications now pair this data with otherhelpful information such as price predictions and projected depreciation, in order to put the buyerin a much better position to assess the quality of used cars, e.g., Carfax (www.carfax.com),CarGurus (www.cargurus.com), Carvana (www.carvana.com). This has led to a muchmore efficient marketplace for used cars. We contend that it
