Academic & Research Council
Professors, labor economists, and workforce researchers who strengthen how AlphaHire measures, models, and reports construction labor intelligence.
The Academic & Research Council raises the rigor of AlphaHire’s intelligence — improving how we measure workforce trends, model labor supply, and report findings to a standard the industry can trust.
