In case you missed it, the American economy is in trouble lately. The Wall Street Journal has come up with a great idea (i.e. get a job in skilled trades!)

Meanwhile pharmacy school student Olga Vityak is the lead in an LA Times article on finding “hot jobs in a cool economy.” Her secret? Enrolling in trade school. Read more about her. Indeed, trade schools are booming in these “hard times.”

Of course, you can use Trade School World to find schools teaching trades that will pay well and remain in demand for many years to come.

Schools teaching some of the most in demand trades will be massage therapy schools, HVAC schools, truck driving schools and paralegal schools, as well as “traditional trade schools” such as construction trade schools, electrician schools and drafting schools.
