Description

The Handyman Pros Radio Show has been a
supporter of decreasing the trades gap.   There's a massive shortage of qualified tradespeople. From truck drivers to phlebotomists, the U.S. faces a massive skills gap in the blue-collar jobs that make our economy function.  
 
Classet was founded to improve the massive skills gap and the challenge to find true upward mobility in the blue collar space. We believe everyone should have access to a quality, economically sustainable, and rewarding career. We want to help make that a reality.
 An Interview was born.
 
What is the trade skills gap?
The trade skills gap, also known as the skills gap in the trades or vocational skills gap, refers to a significant disparity between the skills and qualifications that job seekers possess and the skills that employers in various trade or vocational industries require. This gap arises when there are not enough individuals with the necessary skills and training to fill job openings in trades-related professions. These professions often include skilled trades such
as electricians, plumbers, carpenters, welders, HVAC technicians, and other technical or vocational roles.
Key features of the trade skills gap include:
To address the trade skills gap, various initiatives are often put in place. These can include vocational training programs, apprenticeships, education and industry partnerships, and efforts to attract and retain workers in trade-related careers. Encouraging individuals to pursue careers in the trades and providing them with the necessary training and support is essential for bridging the skills gap and ensuring a skilled workforce in these important sectors.
