The nation faces a skilled trades shortage.

The Skilled Trades Advisory Council is a group of national advocates who have aligned to address this predicament head on. Inaugural members include leaders across the construction, retail, facilities management and skilled trades industries who are ready to create awareness and opportunities on the growing need for skilled trades men and women.

To combat the crisis facing skilled labor in the U.S. and Canada, STAC’s founding advisors will leverage their resources, knowledge, and network to elevate the skilled trades as high-paying, honorable, and often heroic career paths, including electrical, plumbing, HVAC, janitorial, construction, and other essential jobs that require a rejuvenated workforce.
