YET LogoDepartment of Education, Advanced Education administers a summer trades camp for youth interested in learning more about the trades. The Youth Exploring Trades Camp provides exposure to a wide variety of trade related avenues that youth may wish to pursue as career vocations.

If you are ready to try something different this summer and like using tools to create masterpieces with your own hands, well then, YOUTH EXPLORING TRADES is for you. Advanced Education offers a summer trades camp for youth ages 11 to 15 to explore the industry and gain hands on experience using the tools of the trades.
