Board of Directors

Construct Tomorrow is made up of a 12-member Board of Directors that includes union representatives, large and small union contractors, and representatives from government, education, and and affiliates. This diverse representation provides the Board with a well-rounded perspective and insight into the different aspects of developing the next generation of trades workers. Board members serve two year terms.

​

In late 2019, Construct Tomorrow brought on Tim Busse as their first full-time Executive Director. The Executive Director is responsible for providing organizational leadership, raising the visibility and awareness of Construct Tomorrow, and expanding engagement activities with key stakeholders including school districts, trade and union representatives, and general contractors.
