Meet the next generation of skilled workers.
Shops across the Inland Northwest can't find young people who want the work. We bring them to you, already curious about your trade, for a day of shadowing at no cost.
A few hours. No fine print.
Host a shadow day
Let a young person spend a few hours watching one of your people work. Observation only, no tools and no productive work.
No cost, no obligation
There's never a fee, and hosting a shadow doesn't commit you to hiring anyone.
Meet young people who chose you
We send you young adults who picked your trade on purpose, after seeing what it really involves.
Build your pipeline
If someone's a fit, take them on as a paid apprentice or mentee. Your next hire, grown from day one.
We're working to cover their tools.
One reason good young workers wash out early is the upfront cost of tools. We're chasing grant funding to help our participants cover it, so the person you take on is more likely to show up ready and stick with it. More applications are on the way.
No fees. No middleman.
We're a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Tell us which trades you'd host a shadow for and how many at a time, and we'll bring you young people who actually want to learn.
