Trades-Explorer offers learners the opportunity to find and explore careers that are high demand and high satisfaction.
Our Purpose
There is a critical shortage of skilled trades people in British Columbia (Vancouver Sun, 2018). Our intentions are to help promote skilled trades in BC while offering safe and accessible ways to do so. We hope to erase the stigma of "blue collar" work and to showcase how trades can provide you with a career that is in demand, well compensated, and secure. With thousands of job openings within the next decade (WorkBC, 2018) Trades-Explorer helps people find their passion and build their future.
Our Process
EDUCATE
With over 100+ trades in BC to choose from, the first step is to educate students of the various options available. Many of these careers are jobs that people may not even know exist. So, it is important to showcase what is available. Click here for an extensive list of those trades. |
