Phoenix, AZ – May 7, 2025 – 4Ward Solutions Group, a leader in offsite construction innovation and workforce development, proudly announces the formal launch of its School of Design, the first program within the 4Ward Foundry training initiative. This program addresses the growing need for trained structural component designers in the offsite manufacturing space.
With the offsite construction industry expanding rapidly, companies are facing increased pressure to find skilled designers who understand not just component design theory, but also how to apply it using industry-standard software and modeling practices. The School of Design directly answers that need.
“4Ward Foundry and The School of Design is focused on preparing the next generation of component designers with a blend of foundational knowledge, hands-on practice, and real-world application,” said Ben Hershey, CEO of 4Ward Solutions Group. “It’s not just about software training—it’s about creating confident, job-ready professionals who contribute from day one.”
Program Highlights:
- 13-Week Intensive Training Program
- Structural Design Principles: Load paths, framing systems, and industry best practices
- Industry Software Proficiency: Applied training in design platforms used throughout the offsite construction industry.
- Hands-On Modeling Exercises: Guided projects based on real production files.
- Mentorship & QA Focus: Students learn under the guidance of senior designers with decades of experience.
Led by Roger Wagner, Director of Design & Education, the School of Design prepares new hires, career changers, or internal promotions for success in a production environment. Whether a company is onboarding new designers or expanding its team, the Foundry provides a structured and scalable training solution.
“There’s a clear skills gap in our industry, especially in design. This program doesn’t just teach—it builds future experts,” said Roger Wagner, Director of Design & Education, 4Ward Solutions Group.
