Trades and Apprenticeships
We use the term post-secondary education for institutions like universities, trade schools, and community colleges.
If you are interested in learning any technical skills, you can enroll on a college or technical school. Many community colleges have certificates and associate degrees that focus on trades. At NMC, you can take auto mechanic or culinary classes. In other cases, there might be an institution designated for a specific set of courses.
