Skilled trades offer high earning potential and ample growth opportunities for women

Utah Women In Trades actively supports the common goal of improving women’s livable wages, employment opportunities, fostering equality, assisting women in achieving success, and celebrating women’s hard-fought accomplishments in the skilled, non-traditional trades fields.

What is an apprentice?

An apprentice learns the skills of the trade through on-the-job training, working alongside an experienced journey-worker who passes on the skills that he or she has learned over the years. In addition to the on the job training, the apprentice receives related classroom instruction that produces competency and pride that leads to a rewarding career. Apprentices start earning a livable wage as soon as they start working while receiving pay advancements throughout their apprenticeship.
