So you've decided to go to trade school. Why choose CET?

If you’ve made the transformational decision to attend a trade school, congratulations! This is an exciting time full of possibilities and hope for the future. But you still have one huge decision to make: which trade school is right for you?

There are plenty of trade schools that will do the bare minimum and will give you an okay experience but not much more. The Center for Employment Training is different.

At CET, we put students first, every step of the way. What does that really mean? It means valuing students and treating them with respect as individuals. It means acknowledging that every student is on a different journey and helping all of them however possible.

Let’s break down some of the areas that CET simply outshines its peers. By the end, you may have already made up your mind about which of your trade school options is the winner.

Strong Programs

Above all else, a great trade school needs great programs that prepare students for immense success in their selected fields.

Students at CET get invaluable hands-on experience that will easily translate from the classroom to the job site. You won’t spend all your precious time sitting and listening to a lecture that seemingly never ends. You’ll learn from the best about the things you really need to know to be a competitive job applicant and worker poised for advancement.

CET has various locations and offers programs in business, culinary professions, construction and maintenance, and more. If you’re interested in a specific trade school program already, it’s likely that CET has a program that will fit your needs.

Excellent Teachers

A program is only as good as the teachers guiding students along the way. At CET, we don’t believe that old saying that “those who can’t do, teach.” Our teachers are experienced professionals who know exactly how to help students achieve success once they leave the classroom.

Your CET teachers aren’t trying to ensure you get a higher letter grade or simply move on to another course. Their goal is to help you get the job training you need in the shortest time possible. With our hands-on style, you can basically consider your CET courses a dry run for the real thing at work.

Unrivaled Support

Our graduation rates, job placement rates, and students satisfaction rates are some of the highest in the whole country. Why? Because CET supports students all the way from the beginning to the end of their trade school journey and even beyond graduation.

The support starts with admissions when CET pairs prospective students with advisors to help them choose the right program for their interests and abilities as well as finding financial aid opportunities for the most affordable tuition possible. In class, students are supported by patient teachers and peers who share the same goals.

But arguably the most important kind of support that CET offers is employment support. You go to trade school to get a job so we make sure we do everything to help make that happen. We offer assistance writing resumes and preparing for interviews. We help students connect to local employers looking for qualified professionals in their fields. That same job placement support is available after graduation, too.

At CET, we don’t measure our success by how many students enroll at our school. We care most about getting our students prepared for the jobs they want and landing those positions. When you get the job after graduating from CET, your success is our success.

History of Greatness

CET is not new to the program when it comes to helping students achieve a better life. In fact, the first CET job training center was established more than 50 years ago in San Jose, CA.

Since then, CET has only gotten better and better at teaching students marketable skills and helping them land the jobs they want. More than 200,000 students have come through CET’s doors and changed their lives! You could be next.
