Grab The Wheel

The TechForce Foundation has launched a new campaign called “Grab the Wheel” to inspire the next generation of technicians. The campaign aims to help young people find a technical education and career that fits, and to dispel outdated stigmas about the technician profession.

The campaign will be active throughout the year, with launch efforts coinciding with Labor Day. The goal is to welcome one million new entry-level technicians over the next five years to meet the pressing workforce demand.

TechForce Foundation is calling on everyone to help amplify the message by using social media channels to like, comment, or share “Grab the Wheel” content.

THAT’S NOT YOU

Are you tired of the corporate rat race? Of sitting in a cubicle all day, going to birthday parties for people you don’t really like, and feeling like you’re just a cog in the machine?

If so, it’s time to Grab the Wheel and start a career as a technician! Technicians are in high demand, and they earn good salaries. They have the opportunity to work on cutting-edge technology and to make a real difference in people’s lives. And best of all, they get to spend their days working with their hands and solving problems.

So if you’re looking for a career that’s exciting, rewarding, and in demand, then grab the wheel and become a technician today!
