Trades for Tomorrow (T4T)

Trade and Industrial classes provide career exploration for persons considering a career in the trades, continuing education for licensed trades, cross training for trades with related tasks, and classroom credit for meeting the license exam requirements.

Learn about the FCPS Trades for Tomorrow (T4T) course offerings which offer current FCPS students opportunities to participate in apprenticeship, trade and industrial education opportunities. Future development of our T4T program includes defined pathways for students to enter the workforce following successful completion of a course sequence, apprenticeship, and testing.
