Beasley currently serves on the SCC Construction Management Advisory Board. During his long association with SCC, he worked on the design, construction and funding of the Bellwether award-winning Construction Trades Building (building D) on the Sanford/Lake Mary, Fla., campus.
Beasley’s efforts helped create a unique funding mechanism to construct the building with the State of Florida providing $2.7 million and the construction industry providing matching in-kind contributions. Further, Beasley and Palmer Electric Co. continue their partnership with SCC, and their support of the construction management program through donations.
Beasley also worked with SCC and Seminole County Public Schools to offer Dual Enrollment opportunities for high school students enrolled in the Academy of Construction Technologies (ACT), an organization Beasley helped found, that affords high school students pre-apprenticeship training at SCC.
