Training is starting at the end of April in the skilled trades in various programs. Training can lead to certification, benefits, and a lifelong career.

Apprenticeships in the skilled trades range from $14-18 an hour, and nationally recognized credentials after apprenticeships give access to careers that can pay up to $40 an hour wage. 

The City of Detroit also has the Skilled Trades Employment Program (STEP) that can provide support for childcare, transportation, and work-related equipment while in training.
