Career tech and vocational trades have long been the backbone of our workforce, but they've also faced their fair share of challenges, particularly in the form of the job skills gap. However, as we look towards 2028, there's a sense of optimism in the air - significant progress is being made in closing this gap.

As we strive toward success, we continue to encourage and actually push for everyone to achieve their goals by getting a four year college education, but at what cost? To indeed be successful, we need every skill. All skills are required to make our world run efficiently, and right now, the skilled trades industry is experiencing a labor shortage, and it's only expected to worsen in the coming years.
