Career Connections

We’re building the future.

The St. Louis-Kansas City Carpenters Regional Council’s Career Connections program brings cutting-edge technical education and a pathway to a middle-class career to schools across Missouri, Kansas and southern Illinois through our innovative hands-on pre-apprenticeship program.

The Career Connections Program works in partnership with educators to provide students with a practical STEM education taught by skilled instructors. With more than 2,500 students in 70+ programs across our region, our graduates have gone on to earn six figure salaries as union carpenters.

Why Bring Career Connections to Your School?
PUT STUDENTS ON A PATH TO A REWARDING CAREER WITHOUT DEBT
Whether Career Connections graduates go on to college to earn a four-year degree or choose to start working right after high school, the program helps them get a head start on a rewarding career. All Career Connections graduates are given entry to our debt-free apprenticeship program. And certified Career Connections students may also receive dual enrollment credit through a college articulated program.

EMPOWER YOUNG PEOPLE TO BUILD A HIGH-DEMAND CAREER
Opportunities for careers that provide good wages, healthcare, and free career advancement training are disappearing. From infrastructure projects like roads, bridges, and schools, innovative housing and green building, our work is more essential than ever.

EQUIP STUDENTS WITH CUTTING-EDGE TECHNOLOGICAL SKILLS
The future is here, and carpenters embrace cutting-edge technology to get the job done. Whether it’s working with drones or advanced machinery, students will learn how to use the latest technology and software in the construction industry.

Union carpenters are building the iconic structures where we’ll live, work, and play for generations to come. A career in carpentry means creating a lasting impact, not only for students and their families, but their communities.
