Apprenticeship
Earn While You Learn!
Unlike college, an apprenticeship offers you the opportunity to make a living wage while you are learning a skilled trade. At the end of the four or five-year program, the apprentice's earning power often far exceeds that of most college graduates.
Job Satisfaction
A career in the skilled trades gives an individual satisfaction of a job "well done". Many years after finishing a construction project, they are proud of the fact that they played an important part in completing the project, whether that be a hospital, power plant, paper mill or residence. There is no limit to where this career may lead. Perhaps you will use your computer skills to do estimating or some other high-tech, computer based job. You may even decide to own your own company some day.
The opportunities are endless!
