HAPI was proud to support the 2025 Maui Construction Career Day, an annual event that brings together students, educators, and industry professionals to inspire the next generation of Hawaiʻi’s builders. Hosted at the University of Hawai’i Maui College, the event gave hundreds of students a hands-on look at the diverse and rewarding careers available in construction.
As part of our outreach efforts, HAPI joined fellow industry partners to showcase the world of asphalt paving from the science of materials to the art of building smooth, durable roads. Students had the chance to explore real equipment, ask questions, and learn how asphalt plays a vital role in connecting our communities across the islands.
Events like this reinforce HAPI’s commitment to supporting workforce development and promoting careers that strengthen Hawaiʻi’s infrastructure. We’re grateful to the organizers, volunteers, and students who made the day a success; and to all who share our passion for building Hawaiʻi’s future, one road at a time.
