Op-ed argues neurodivergent workers give construction an underused edge, with AI easing paperwork
A contractor writes that she passed five licensing exams, including the 27-hour NASCLA exam accepted in 18 states, after studying 45 prep books. She argues that many construction workers are neurodivergent and possess strong spatial reasoning skills, but are held back by paperwork-heavy licensing and administrative demands, which she says AI tools could help offset.
