When most people think of skilled trades they automatically think of the more commonly known trades, such as plumbing, carpentry, electrical work, welding, automotive repair, and HVAC.

However, many overlook the Services sector of skilled trade jobs. This sector involves the skills of personal craftsmanship and showcases one's talent. Regardless of the sector, all skilled trades involve specialized training and expertise in a particular field or craft.
