YMCA ComEd CONSTRUCT 2025 Application

Thank you for your interest in the 2025 CONSTRUCT Infrastructure Youth Academy! If you (or your student) are a rising high school junior or senior and interested in a future career in the energy sector, we encourage you to apply!

We are currently enrolling for all three cohorts, located at our Rauner Family YMCA, South Side YMCA, and Kelly Hall YMCA locations. Due to the popularity of the program and number of applications, we may not be able to accommodate all applicants in the 2025 program.

Our first cohort takes place at the South Side YMCA from June 10 to 26 on select days from Monday to Thursday. Our second cohorts take place at the Kelly Hall YMCA and Rauner Family YMCA, Tuesday through Thursday, from July 8 to 24. All cohorts take place from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
