Philip teaches three classes, estimating construction, heavy construction, and the program's capstone course. These courses cover a wide range of topics to prepare students to join the workforce as leaders in their respective fields.  Philip draws his knowledge from years of experience in the field, both directly in the field and in the office as an estimator. Ultimately he decided that he could better serve his community in the classroom, teaching others not just to do the work but how to be leaders on the job site. If you want more insight on getting ahead in the construction industry, this lesson is a freebie!
