Choosing a Trade School
Choosing the right trade school is more than just picking a program—it’s about finding the right fit for your goals, learning style, and timeline.

Whether you’re fresh out of high school or looking to shift careers, getting clear on what you want from your education will help you choose a program that sets you up for success.
What are Your Career Goals?
Start by thinking about the kind of work you want to do. Do you see yourself working outdoors, troubleshooting systems, or building something with your hands? TWS offers a range of skilled trades programs—including Welding, HVAC/R, Electrical Applications, and Electrical Lineworker training. Each one leads to career paths that are in demand across Florida and beyond. Choosing a program that aligns with your interests and long-term goals makes your education more relevant and rewarding.
Do I Want Hands-on Training?
Trade schools like TWS offer hands-on training, allowing you to put the theory you learn in the classroom to the test. This training will help build your confidence and get you ready for a trade job in Jacksonville.
How Long Do I Have to Complete a Program?
Not everyone can spend four years in school before earning a paycheck. If you’re eager to get trained and start working as soon as possible, TWS offers programs designed to get you into the workforce fast—some in as little as seven months.
Flexible scheduling options, including day and evening classes, make it easier to balance school with other responsibilities. Whether you’re working part-time, raising a family, or switching careers, you can train on a timeline that works for you. Your time is valuable, and a focused, fast-track education can help you make the most of it.
How Big are the Classes?
Smaller classes offer more one-on-one personal attention. TWS hires industry experienced instructors that know what you need to succeed. Our instructors are ready to offer guidance and provide immediate feedback so you receive positive reinforcement to instill the knowledge and skills you gain during the trade programs.
Is The School Accredited?
Make sure the school is accredited. TWS is accredited by the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges (ACCSC)1. ACCSC is recognized by the U.S. Department of Education and reviews schools based on quality of education and student outcomes.
