June 7, 2025 - 23:33
Amid an ongoing shortage of individuals entering the trades, Keene Community Education is set to introduce a pre-apprenticeship program this summer. This innovative initiative aims to equip participants with essential skills and knowledge, preparing them for a successful career in various trade fields.
The program will span ten weeks, offering hands-on training and classroom instruction to help students gain a comprehensive understanding of the trades. Participants will learn about critical areas such as electrical work, plumbing, carpentry, and HVAC systems. By providing this training, Keene Community Education hopes to address the growing demand for skilled labor in the region.
This new program not only aims to fill the gaps in the workforce but also encourages local residents to consider a career in the trades, which often offer lucrative job opportunities and the potential for advancement. With the launch of this pre-apprenticeship program, Keene Community Education is taking a proactive step towards fostering a new generation of skilled tradespeople.
