ComEd announced that its CONSTRUCT Infrastructure Academy and Craft Academy have now served over 1,000 participants since 2013.

In April 2025, 73 new graduates completed the free job training programs, which are designed to prepare diverse local talent for entry-level careers in construction and the utility sector.

With support from 40 partners and community groups, the programs offer certifications, hands-on training, and job placement support. Over 70% of participants have secured jobs post-training, with more than 90% being people of color and nearly 20% women in this year’s class.
