    For Students

    Step into Shop Class and discover what you can build. You will learn how to work safely, use tools with confidence, and complete real projects you can be proud of. You do not need experience, only curiosity and a willingness to try something new.

    For Parents and Educators

    Help us bring hands-on learning to more young people. We partner with schools, youth programs, and community organizations to create engaging experiences that introduce students to real career pathways. Together, we can give them the confidence and skills they need to succeed.

    For Industry Professionals

    Share your knowledge, mentor the next generation, and help us close the skills gap. Whether you volunteer your time, offer tools and materials, or sponsor a program, your involvement makes a direct impact on students and on the future workforce.
