Career Exploration Workshop: Exploring Skilled Trades

Are you returning to the workforce? Are you currently working, but not earning what you’re worth? Are you feeling trapped in a career or industry that you don’t love? Career exploration events were made for you! This is not your typical career fair. Come explore your options in the safe, friendly Single Mom Strong environment you know and love. Haven’t joined us before? This is a great first event and it’s open to all women, with single moms given priority for childcare.

Talk with women in these industries. Ask real questions about what it is like to work in their field, how they balance work and family, their experience with career advancement and more.

This session, presented in partnership with SMUD and the Sacramento Valley Manufacturing Alliance, will explore Skilled Trades. Skilled trades aren’t all heavy lifting and dirty fingernails. The solar, electrical and manufacturing fields offer a variety of careers in safe, clean and tech-oriented environments. Think: high-wage jobs that don’t require college degrees.

Enjoy lunch and hands-on career exploration activities, while also taking time to network and socialize. Childcare will be provided onsite in our licensed childcare center with our qualified teaching staff. Single Mothers have priority access to childcare. All others will be offered space as it is available, on a first-registered, first-served basis. We can’t wait to see you there!
