Trade Smart College is not for everyone. We truly want everyone to be the best they can be, but that does not mean that everyone should come to our college. We offer pre-apprenticeship training in five trades, so we’re not the right fit for anyone who isn’t interested in a career in those trades. But more than that, we only know one pathway to excellence in the trades, and we only accept 150 students a year per location.
