Success Stories

“I am thrilled to hear that MSHDA with the support of Governor Whitmer have brought back the Contactor Assistance Program (CAP).  I remember taking that class in the Winter of 2006 and the lessons learned then still resonate today - actually now more than ever considering the rising construction costs throughout the United States.  From the sections on Blueprint Reading, Bidding & Estimating, and License & Lien Laws, to Bonding & Insurance, Prevailing Wages, and Pro Bono Business Resources; the wealth of wisdom that the CAP class provided is a must for any tradesperson, subcontractor, or general contractor with a passion to expand their business.  Real estate developers looking to navigate the world of construction in a more cost-effective way will also benefit greatly from this program.  I can honestly say that the lessons learned in the Contractor Assistance Program helped Ginosko Development Company navigate the Great Recession and grow the company from one property owned in 2006 to a nationwide footprint of properties owned today.  Thank you Contractor Assistance Program and I will forever be grateful!  I hope that this worthwhile program continues for a long time to come, and I look forward to assisting in any way I can!
