StrataTech Education Group, a long-time leader in training skilled professionals, launched StrataSkills Industry Solutions (StrataSkills) as a workforce development and retention solution for electrician, welder, and HVAC/R employers nationwide. StrataSkills launches when industry demand for trained workforces and certain skillsets are at an all-time high.
“Reskilling and upskilling are critical to business growth. Employers recognize they have to keep their workforce highly skilled to meet the increasing demands of their customers and ever-evolving technological advancements”, said Mary Kelly, President and CEO of StrataTech Education Group. “Investing in people and utilizing programs like StrataSkills to train and develop workers will not only allow employees to keep current with technology, but also allow businesses to remain competitive in the global marketplace.”
As employers and trade professionals review the wide array of course offerings, they will find a number of resources and training programs to meet these critical needs. Courses include advanced pipe welding, electrical distribution systems, EPA certification, and national electrical code, lockout/tagout procedures and more.
