Onesignificant advantage the building and skilled trades education programs offer students isapprenticeships with local employers, which allows them to earn money and gain valuable on-the-job experience at the same time they’re getting an education. Sometimes theseapprenticeships lead to full-time positions in the company. With the foregoing in mind, the goalof this paper is to clearly define the building and technical skilled trades, focusing onarchitectural technology, automotive systems technology, computer-integrated machining,construction trades, electrical systems technology, and electronics engineering technology.Added emphasis will be placed on the role of engineering in teaching these subjects and

Learning in Community Colleges and Four-Year UniversitiesIntroduction Community colleges serve an important role in the development of students in science,technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields. Most community colleges are open-accessinstitutions, with students coming from all different walks of life to enroll in these schools [1].These include students directly out of high-school, or those that are returning to school for asecond career. When looking that the demographics of community colleges, we find that theyserve a disproportionate number of students who are marginalized [2]. These institutions oftenare a gateway to transferring into a four-year school where a student can continue their educationand receive a bachelor’s

it, and I would encourage you to do the same as now. So many opportunities lie present simply at your fingertips and I recommend you take full advantage of this. Say for example, participating in a robotics competition, or applying for an internship at a local tech company, or even signing up to tour a technology facility, all of these are great opportunities for anyone with serious interest in engineering. The moment I found my spot in the opportunities I had; taking part in robotics competitions, applying for jobs, working with clubs in my area designing and building cool tech projects, I found that I now search more and more not for clubs to take part in or opportunities to take
