The Women in Trades Career Fair

by Carl Ballard — Thursday, 5/9/13, 7:41 pm

I didn’t know about it until a little while ago, but this seems like a great thing if it might be helpful for you.

Many women have never considered career options such as welding, electricity or carpentry, but these opportunities are available, and even more so as baby boomer workers are nearing retirement. Who WILL keep our lights on, our bridges safe, our water running and our roads paved? These are jobs that cannot be outsourced.

As the oldest women’s trade organization in the Puget Sound, it is WWIT’s job to educate and inspire our youth, as well as steer work-ready women toward these high paying, mentally challenging, and self-empowering careers in the trades.
