TEN FACTS ABOUT TRADE SCHOOL

Vocational programs attract students who do not want to attend a traditional
college or university. Prospective trade school students can keep this
information in mind as they consider if a career in the trades is right for
them.

1. Students can often learn a trade and enter a related profession within 10 to
24 months of enrolling in trade school.

2. Schools focused on specific trades have strong job placement rates that often
exceed those of schools where students pursue four-year degrees, according to
the Philadelphia Technician Training School.

3. Qualified instructors and trade industry experts tend to be on staff at
vocational schools. The instructors bring years of on-the-job experience to the
classroom.

4. any trade school programs offer accelerated formats that lean heavily on
specialized training for specific career goals.

5. Trade schools tend to merge instruction in a traditional classroom setting
with hands-on training in real-world situations. That means those studying
electrical trades may work in laboratories that mimic both home and business
settings.

6. Forbes reports that students in trade school often take part in a paid
apprenticeship where they earn money while learning on the job. Statistics from
the United States government state 92 percent of apprentices who complete their
programs retain employment and go on to earn a salary.



7.Many trades are quite lucrative and in-demand. According to the U.S. Bureau of
Labor Statistics, carpenters earn a median wage of $54,000 while an elevator and
escalator installer and repair person earns an average of $86,000 per year.

8.Many trade schools offer industry support and career services, just like
traditional colleges. These departments can assist students in funding tuition
through federal aid and scholarships and help them find jobs.

9.Students enrolled in accredited vocational schools could be eligible for
federal student aid. That’s particularly true for students enrolled in programs
that last longer than 15 weeks, according to The Balance, a financial resource.
Individuals living in the U.S. can file the Free Application for Student Aid
(FAFSA) to see if they’re eligible for assistance.

10.Apart from elevator installers and repair people, dental hygienists and
radiation therapists tend to earn the highest salaries in the trades.

Students interested in trade education can speak with school guidance counselors
or reach out to accredited trade schools to learn more about opportunities near
them.
