SKILLED TRADES PROGRAM

WHAT ARE SKILLED TRADES?

Skilled trades are jobs that require a special skill that can be obtained through specialized schooling. These jobs and careers usually involve work in a setting where the company makes or manufactures a product. The skilled trades are a growing industry.

ASK YOURSELF…

• Do you prefer hands on learning over quiet study?

• Do you like fixing things or taking them apart to see how they work?

• Do you like thinking of ways to improve the way things work?

• Are you a natural problem solver?

• Are you willing to keep learning, even after trades training?

• Are you flexible about working nights & weekends?

IF YOU SAID “YES” TO ANY OF THESE, YOU MAY REALLY ENJOY A CAREER PATH THAT INVOLVES A SKILLED TRADE.

WHY IS NORTH STAR'S SKILLED TRADES PROGRAM
THE RIGHT OPPORTUNITY FOR YOU?

You will have exposure to top notch industrial maintenance equipment with a focus in each of the core production areas to learn about that area and its contribution to the overall business.
