About this organization
Mission
Increase the diversity of construction trades entrants & foster long-term construction careers
About
Minnesota Trades Academy (MTA): MTA is a paid summer construction internship experience for selected Minnesota high school youth. The goal is to help youth prepare for adulthood through lifelong learning, skill development, and the access to good jobs with good benefits in the construction industry. MTA aspires to provide rich educational and hands-on experiences for participants to earn while they learn about construction as a career choice. To achieve this, the MN Trades Academy offers two tracks: Track 1 - Introduction: An intern receives an overarching 6-week introduction to construction career opportunities within the build trades industry (i.e. carpentry, pipefitting, and electrical). Interns are also exposed to industry-related careers such as architecture, surveying, estimating, project management and design build. Track II Advanced: This opportunity prepares interns to select a construction career path - union apprenticeship training, construction-related post-secondary tracts, or direct entry into the construction workplace if desired. Over a 9-week period, interns visit up to 16 different apprenticeship training centers where they receive training and supervision from industry experts as they complete projects using both hand and power tools.
