In 2019, Primetime launched Pathways — a $42M apprenticeship program built in partnership with Chicago Public Schools, City Colleges of Chicago, and the Chicagoland Regional Council of Carpenters.
Six years in, the program has placed 412 apprentices into journeyman-track positions. 78% are CPS graduates. 64% are first-generation tradespeople. And every Pathways apprentice earns a starting wage of at least $28/hour with full benefits — from the first day they pick up a tool.

22 years here. I've outlasted three economic downturns and never been laid off. Primetime keeps its people through the cycles. That's not common in this industry.Theresa WalshSenior Superintendent · Joined 2003
I left a national firm to join Primetime. The difference: every project I work on is in the city I live in. My commute is shorter and my impact is bigger.Aisha Mbeki, P.E.VDC Manager · Joined 2022
