Helena College recently expanded its trades education program with hopes of filling some of those positions with skilled workers.

In 2020, the Montana Department of Labor and Industry said Montana has over 5,000 job openings per year. One of the leading sectors was construction with 370 openings.

Helena College is furthering trades education with their new finishing trades program that focuses on skills like painting, drywall finishing, and glazing.
