With some help from the Jaguars, Jacksonville is about to create more jobs for those seeking work in the coming weeks and months. That’s thanks in part to the team’s latest projects — the Sports Performance Center and the Shipyards.
The construction of the performance center is already underway, while the Shipyards will begin soon.
But, the real job creation and activation initiative comes via the franchise’s partnership with a program called ‘Construction Ready’, a company that hosts four-week boot-camp-style classes that help the graduates of the program earn up to eight various certifications that will allow them to seek work on construction jobs.
