Start a Trades Career
Leave the desk behind and get your hands dirty
If you like working with your hands and the satisfaction of physical labor, a career in trades is for you. This type of work is not easily outsourced, and there is a significant demand for those trained in the field. In fact, employment in construction is expected to rise 19 percent by 20181.
Eastwick Education's HoHoKus Schools offer a variety of specialized trades programs to meet this growing demand, with a focus on quality hands-on training. For example, graduates of the electrical or plumbing program earn the equivalent of one-year on-the-job apprenticeship experience, increasing their value in the job market.
If you're excited by power tools and welding sparks, call HoHoKus-Trades at 800-646-WELD or check out a full list of our trade programs.
