Trade Skills and So Much More

In the workplace as in life, hard skills can take a person only so far. That’s why our Skilled Trades Training Program will deliver a thoughtful curriculum that highlights soft skills and entrepreneurial training in addition to trade skills. In this way, students will gain not only valuable technical skills and work experience, but also the academic and personal skills needed to be successful in whatever path they choose after high school. Some may start earning a livable wage in their chosen trade even before they graduate from high school.
