Nearly 6,000 Houston-area students got the chance to “test drive” lucrative design and construction careers through a program from the National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA), an industry trade group representing the $158 billion residential kitchen and bath industry.
Half of the students attending the BridgeYear/NKBA Career Tours expressed high interest in one or more of the careers, while more than 90% of the participating students reported positive views about the occupations.
