Did you pass up on going to “traditional college”? Are you looking for a career change where no two days are ever the same? Then you should explore a career as a skilled tradesman!
Earning Potential
The Plumbing, HVAC and Electrical fields are challenging, rewarding and have great earning potential. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average plumber makes approximately $50,000 and upwards per year with plumbers earning six-figures in some cities in the United States where they are in high demand.
On the Job Training
While many career paths require spending thousands of dollars earning a college degree, the plumbing, HVAC, and electrical fields allow you to have on-the-job training while being paid. Skilled tradesmen can begin earning at the apprentice level, and with hands-on training done on the job, they omit being weighed down by debt from costly student loans.
Positive Job Outlook for Tradesmen
The Bureau of Labor statistics predict that the demand for skilled tradespeople will explode in the next ten years. Building construction, replacement of old climate controlled systems for newer, more efficient models, the addition of environmental laws and new technology that homes and businesses are installing, require more plumbers, electricians and HVAC technicians than in previous years. The demand for skilled tradespeople is continuing to grow across the United States, with faster averages than other occupations.
Job Security
As the demand for skilled tradespeople increases across the United States, some Plumbing, HVAC and Electrical companies continue to report difficulty in finding qualified workers. Hardworking, committed tradespeople have the potential to advance within their field, earn a high income and most importantly, have job security. Melvin Music, owner of Allgood Plumbing, Electric, Heating & Cooling located in Snellville, GA says, “If you learn a trade, you always have a job. The services you need from a plumber, electrician or HVAC technician cannot be out-sourced. As a business owner, I am always looking for top talent to join our team – whether you have experience in the business, or you are starting out at an apprentice level.”
