SkillsUSA is a partnership of students, teachers & industry working together to ensure America has a skilled workforce.
About us
SkillsUSA is the #1 workforce development organization for students. We empower students to become skilled professionals, career-ready leaders and responsible community members. A vital solution to the ongoing skills gap, where more highly skilled jobs are available than skilled professionals ready to fill them, SkillsUSA has served more than 14.6 million diverse, difference-making members since 1965. Representing over 413,000 career and technical education students and teachers, SkillsUSA chapters thrive in middle schools, high schools and college/postsecondary institutions nationwide. Our mission is accomplished through the SkillsUSA Framework of Personal Skills, Workplace Skills and Technical Skills Grounded in Academics, which is integrated into classroom curriculum. Through the Framework, SkillsUSA students hone their hands-on skills against current industry standards in more than 130 occupational areas, from 3D Animation to Welding and nearly everything in between. At the same time, they develop the transformative career-readiness skills — teamwork, communication, professionalism, leadership and more — that fuel career and life success.

As we close out #CareersinConstructionMonth, we’re reflecting on NLSC, where NCCER partnered with If I Had A Hammer to connect students with the construction industry, teaching essential skills to build a house 🪚🛠️ Students learned lifelong skills, gained confidence and formed a strong sense of community. This month has been a fantastic celebration of achievements, and we'll keep championing construction and skilled trades all year long! 💪 #CareersInConstruction #NLSC24 #SkilledTrades #NCCER #SkillsUSA

October is #CareersInConstructionMonth, and we’re proud to recognize the incredible individuals shaping the future of this vital industry. Construction isn’t just about building structures—it's about building communities, opportunities, and lasting legacies. One of the exceptional young leaders in this field is Brady Kroll, our WorldSkills USA competitor in Plumbing and Heating. Brady’s passion and dedication to mastering his craft have earned him the honor of representing the U.S. on the world stage at WorldSkills Lyon 2024 last month. He’s not only showcasing his skills but also inspiring the next generation of skilled professionals to pursue careers in construction and skilled trades. This month, we’re celebrating Brady and all those who are making a difference in the construction industry. #WorkforceDevelopment #SkillsUSA #LowesFoundation #LowesFoundationCICM #ConstructionIndustry Lowe's Foundation PHCC Academy®
