On the Transbay Center and ive seen a lot of trades that go in rades classrooms from the schools because we were worried about creating kind of tracking in our Public School system and then hearing that its coming back, which is great because these are real living wage jobs here in San Francisco. I was curious about the gender breakdown of the program and its great to see three young women here representing for the class, so im curious kind of who the class and programs attract and im curious about the budget because you had mentioned that you might have three instructors in a class, so geometry teacher, a trades teacher, im just wondering how all of that gets funded. So, for the trades specifically, thats funded through ct career technical education, those teachers are part of that so that includes our culinary, we have a chef whos onsite and school teaching, that includes our business trades and our environmental tech who teaches our Electronics Program and the teachers thermoses, th
Program because honestly, i love seeing how things start off small and then like grow and expand and i thought what better than joining the construction program, like, i think its just beautiful to see all these people come together and they have different interests and then they all make this little tiny house. Well, i started last year and then we had two classes together combined which were geometry and construction, and construction helped me understand geometry a lot easier because i can work with the tools and i could see angles and see how geometry helps like in real life situations and how we see it every day, and then thats why i continued second year which is currently now. And they have more i have more experiences this year and then more opportunities to see real life situations like the internship were currently having. Thank you. This is my second year also and ive joined it again because i really liked it and because its given me a lot of opportunities as well and ive le

Construction. Another good month progress for the project, just right off the top, we had no recordable incident, no lost time incidents, no major incidents at all this month, this period. Again, the overview shot, the schedule milestones websinger have a slight change here that youll notice in the structural steel, were running a couple of weeks behind which pushes us into Second Quarter 2016 from First Quarter, the issue is based on supply fabrication. The initial columns and the initial transfer girders are taking longer to fabricate than previously envisioned. Just this week, were moving some of that material, webcor is taking a proactive approach to it and were going to ask to move some of that material in stockton, so were nr the process of doing that so it will hopefully speed that delivery up and theyre going to work with the followup trades to pick that time back up, so just a warning right now in terms of that slipping, otherwise, everythings on track and thats one of the mil
