Workforce Ready: Breaking into Trades & Non-Traditional Careers a W4M ROUNDTABLE - Sept 2025

Workforce Ready: Breaking into Trades & Non-Traditional Careers In this Women 4 Mentors Roundtable, we sit down with Leslie McFarlin, Vice President of Economic Development at North Georgia Technical College, to talk about how women can break into trades and other non-traditional career paths. Together, we’ll explore: ✅ The most in-demand trade and workforce programs in our region ✅ How accessible these programs really are — from tuition to scheduling and support ✅ What the process looks like for someone brand new — from applying to landing that first job ✅ Salary expectations starting out, plus 3- to 5-year growth potential ✅ The unique challenges women face — and how to overcome them ✅ How local employers are stepping up to support and recruit women ✅ What support systems exist, including childcare, transportation assistance, and scholarships ✅ Encouragement for women who feel like it may be “too late” to start over Whether you’re considering a career change, looking for more stability, or simply curious about the opportunities available, this conversation will give you the insight and encouragement you need to take your next step with confidence. 🔔 Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe for more conversations that empower women through mentorship, education, and community. #Women4Mentors #WorkforceReady #TradesCareers #WomenInTrades #CareerChange
