What are the Trades?
Did you know many careers in the trades are in high demand, offer a high wage and are attainable through short-term training and certifications?
Often a career in the trades starts with an apprenticeship allowing you to earn an income while undergoing training and developing new skills. There are more than 1,000 occupations with apprenticeship programs that have been registered with the department of labor.
Trades careers can be found in many industries including healthcare, construction, IT, cosmetology, logistics, transportation and manufacturing.
