What is the Turner School of Construction Management?
The Turner School of Construction Management for Small, Women-Owned and Minority-Owned Businesses is the oldest community outreach program in Turner’s history. Initiated in 1969, the program has since become an opportunity to develop strategic business relationships with minority and women-owned firms. Today, the Turner School of Construction Management is offered in more than 30 of Turner’s offices nationwide.
