We Are Making The Trades Cool Again.
Working Class started out as a TV show to help bring about awareness of the epidemic skilled trades shortage. It has since evolved into a campaign, helping countless young people start careers as skilled trade professionals.
We host a TV show illustrating interesting skilled trades careers, offer a book titled "Working Class" discussing the skilled trades gap and how to overcome it, help guide young people to the skilled trades, offer speaking engagements, and many more things that help promote the skilled trades.
The trades are essential workers
The trades keep the economy running
Developing a trade is just as important as a college degree
Mission:
Introduce young people age 16-28 to viable career paths outside of the traditional college path.
Vision:
For society to look at skilled trades careers equally to 4-year college graduate careers
