Skilled Trades

**Summary:** Apprenticeships let you get paid while learning a skilled trade. Options range from construction and building trades to manufacturing, automotive, and healthcare—each with different requirements and career paths.

Get paid to learn your craft! If you're interested in pursuing a career in the trades, an apprenticeship can be a great place to start. Apprenticeships provide hands-on training and education and a paid opportunity to work under experienced professionals. But with so many different types of trades and apprenticeships available, it can be overwhelming to know where to start.
