Why Choose a Trade?
While high schools typically push students to go to college, more people are starting to realize what we’ve always known – the value of going to a trade school. Trade jobs are in high demand, and they are what keeps our communities running, from plumbers, HVAC pros, electricians, and more. There are numerous benefits to choosing a trade, including graduation sooner and earning as you learn with on-the-job training. Become one of the skilled professionals that fill and important role in building your local community.

A trade can lead to many opportunities for advancement throughout your career such as a Journeyman or Project Manager.

The pay for blue-collar jobs in increasing and will continue to increase as the demand increases.
