The lessons behind the school

Clifton started with almost nothing, no construction experience, and no contractor’s license. Building the company meant facing difficult setbacks, including customers who did not pay, and learning lessons without a clear place to turn.

Those experiences drive the school’s purpose: connect hands-on construction learning with the knowledge needed to build and run a company.

Learn the craft. Understand the business. Work toward a company of your own.
