As the costs of four-year college degrees continue to spiral out of control, many newly graduated students find themselves facing mountains of debt with dim job prospects. Demand for young people with practical skills, meanwhile, is continually on the rise, leading many students to turn to accredited technical institutes like Berk Trade and Business School in New York City. In fact, trade schools across the country are seeing a rise in enrollment as both young people and adult learners realize that vocational training can lead to a well-paying career and a lifetime of stability.

Berk Trade and Business School offers a training program in plumbing, for example, an in-demand field with start salaries commonly between $50,000 and $60,000. The majority of students graduating from the electrician program already have their first job waiting for them, a claim few college graduates can make in the modern economy. The trade school does its upmost to prepare their students for long-term success, with resume-writing workshops and job interview preparation programs designed to help you succeed.

While vocational programs are very inexpensive compared to college, trade schools offer very generous financial aid packages so you can start your career with a clean slate. The United States government predicts a shortage of skilled workers in the coming decade, so people able to perform these jobs will be in even higher demand than ever before.
