Student Chapters

Housed under the Residential Construction Academy, and funded by NAHB, corporate partners, and student member dues, the NAHB Student Chapters program helps to enrich the educational experience of students enrolled in construction-related fields such as construction management, engineering, architecture, real estate, and the trades.

Chapters are located at high schools, vocational and technical schools, community colleges (2-year programs) and universities (4-year programs) across the county.

Affiliated NAHB Student Chapters
NAHB Student Chapters must annually renew membership. Renewal packets will be sent via USPS early September to the primary faculty advisor.

How HBAs Get Involved with Student Chapters
