I'm Matt — a Building Trades Instructor Who Built This CTE Building Science Curriculum
High school CTE and community college construction programs deserve better than pieced-together PDFs. So I built something better.
My background
I've taught Building Trades at the high school and community college level for years. I've seen firsthand what happens when students get real, structured curriculum — versus what happens when they don't.
Building science is one of the most critical skill sets in modern construction. Blower door testing, air sealing, thermal performance, moisture management — these aren't electives anymore. The industry demands them. But finding classroom-ready curriculum that actually teaches this stuff at the right level? Nearly impossible.
So I built it myself. Every unit, every lab, every assessment comes from real classroom experience. I know what trades students respond to, what confuses them, and what prepares them for the field.
