During their one-year class term, members must attend several training events and work as a committee on a project assigned by the MSSA Board of Directors.

The program accepts five to seven participants each year from MSSA member companies. In order to be considered, applicants must submit an application and a 500-word essay.

Munn, a native of Sumrall, has been employed at his family’s business since 2006 and assumed his current position in 2018. He is a 2009 graduate of Sumrall High School, a 2013 graduate of the Jones County Junior College civil engineering technology program and a 2015 graduate of the construction engineering technology program at the University of Southern Mississippi.
