Hire Skilled, Qualified Graduates from North American Trade Schools
Since 1971, North American Trade Schools has trained HVAC technicians, electricians, welders, diesel mechanics, construction tradespeople, and commercial drivers in Baltimore. We believe the future of skilled trades training requires close partnership between training institutions and employers. Our goal is to become the best talent partner for employers in the manufacturing, transportation, utilities, and construction industries in Greater Baltimore.
Whether you’re looking to build your entry-level pipeline or upskill your existing team, we can help attract and train the right talent and develop custom training programs for your workforce.
Why Partner with Us
Our students spend more than 500 hours in the shop before they graduate — welding, framing and finishing mini homes, troubleshooting AC units, wiring mock homes — on curriculum aligned with national standards like NCCER. They do it all in a brand-new 40,000 square foot campus we built out in 2024, under the guidance of industry veterans with decades of experience.
When you identify a meaningful gap in the preparation of entry-level workers, we will respond. That might change a lab exercise, the equipment students train on, the emphasis in a course, your involvement with students or, where appropriate, the curriculum itself. Our students come here to build careers in the trades, and we serve them best by making sure their training reflects what employers need.
