**Webinar Time is EST*

We know there is a significant and growing need for skilled tradespeople as our existing workforce continues to age out, but what should modern vocational training look like? And how do we overcome a serious lack of facilities and infrastructure to help more promising candidates successfully make the leap from hobby to career? Cynthia Bleskachek, creator of The Funky Little Chair, will be sharing a preview of their Basic Level Certificate, and talking about the important role that online resources could play in helping to rebuild apprenticeship paths in the U.S. There will be time after the webinar, so come with your thoughts and questions.
