If you’re planning to enter the skilled trades in 2026, make sure these 3 financial aid steps are on your list:

• Apply for the FAFSA

Zero tolerance means zero compromise.

Harassment. Discrimination. Workplace violence. None of it belongs in the skilled trades.

Every jobsite should be a place where women feel safe, valued, and respected. Not just this week. Every week.

We are proud to stand alongside women in construction who are building stronger careers and stronger cultures.

Respect is deserved in every workplace.

February is Career & Technical Education Month! It's a time to recognize students who are investing in practical skills that directly impact the world around them.

Behind every finished project, every repaired system, and every working community is someone who trained, practiced, and committed to learning a trade.

This month, we celebrate the students who are choosing to build their futures with this type of purpose and skill!
