Description: Welcome to the world of construction! You are joining the eight million Americans who have chosen a career in this lucrative field. Construction is one of the nation's largest industries, offering excellent opportunities for high earnings, career advancement, and business ownership. NCCER and Pearson are pleased to present the fourth edition of Core Curriculum: Introductory Craft Skills. This full-color textbook now includes nine modules for building foundation skills in construction. To help entry-level craftworkers step up their awareness of materials handling techniques and equipment, NCCER brings you "Introduction to Materials Handling." We are also excited to provide a revised "Basic Safety" module that now aligns to OSHA's 10-hour program. - Preface.
