Harvard Investments, EVIT launch educational partnership
by Apache Junction Independent
Arizona-based real estate investment and development company Harvard Investments and East Valley Institute of Technology are launching a 12-month program that provides high school students access in understanding the entire process for building a master-plan community – Cadence at Gateway, in southeast Mesa.
The program launched Aug. 25 allows students to track Cadence’s development as it happens – from groundbreaking to doors opening, according to a press release.
“Our intent is that when a student completes this 12-month study, she or he will have unprecedented knowledge about each step in building a community that will serve 1,700 families as well as businesses, schools, retail and more,” Craig Krumwiede, president of Harvard Investments, said in the release. “It puts the young person that much closer to understanding career options within this great industry, first-hand access to watching it get built, linking them to the best professionals in the industry and encouraging next steps in their career path.”
