The Home Depot and The Home Depot Foundation are committed to educating more people in the skilled trades and helping them find careers in the home improvement industry through our Path to Pro program. With nearly 400,000 open roles in the trades nationally, we can’t tackle this work alone. Industry leaders like Home Builders Institute (HBI), Construction Ready, SkillPointe Foundation and Atlanta Technical College (ATC) are helping us prepare skilled people for these opportunities. Since the program’s inception, the Foundation’s trades-focused partnerships have trained nearly 43,000 participants and introduced more than 245,000 people to the skilled trades, surpassing its commitment to train 20,000 people six years ahead of schedule.
Additionally, the company has also launched several new initiatives. From geotargeted online resources and entry-level certificates to advanced training, and even a networking platform with the company's Pro customers, people now have even more opportunity to pursue their career journey in trades from start to finish.
