🚨 TRADE TALENT SEARCH IS GOING NATIONAL! 🚨

📍 BALTIMORE, MARYLAND — HERE WE COME! 🏙️

We’re excited to officially begin BETA TESTING TRADE TALENT SEARCH (TTS) at Thomas Johnson Middle School in Baltimore, MD! 🎉🙌🏾

This week, 65 AMAZING eighth graders will begin their TTS journey by creating user accounts, completing surveys designed to help them discover more about themselves and their interests, and exploring content featuring careers in the skilled, mechanical, energy, and industrial trades! 🛠️⚡⚙️

But this is about MORE than introducing students to new career opportunities. It’s about helping the next generation discover possibilities they may have never considered!

And here’s what makes this milestone even BIGGER… 👀

📊 We’re expanding our ability to track student engagement and collect data across multiple schools and states!

Imagine being able to see how students in different communities discover skilled trades, which careers capture their interest, and how their perspectives change as they explore new opportunities.

That’s the vision behind TTS! We’re building a digital platform designed to help students discover their potential, explore career pathways, and connect their interests to real-world opportunities.

From Kansas City to Baltimore, we’re taking another step toward inspiring the builders of tomorrow… TODAY! 💪🏾

The journey is just getting started, and we’re excited to see where it takes us next!

🚀🔥 A GOOD PROBLEM TO HAVE! 🔥🚀

They say growth comes with growing pains… and WOW, are we growing! 💪🏾

In just 45 DAYS, Trade Talent Search (TTS) has reached some incredible milestones!

📍 6 HIGH SCHOOLS
📍 3 MIDDLE SCHOOLS
👩🏾‍🎓 200+ STUDENTS participating in beta testing
📊 600+ SURVEY COMPLETIONS across three surveys
🎥 300+ MINUTES OF CONTENT watched
🔧 20+ SKILLED TRADE CAREER PATHWAYS explored

Let that sink in for a moment! 🤯

More than 200 students are actively exploring career opportunities, discovering skilled trades, and learning about professions they may have never considered before.

And we’re just getting started!

BUT… we have a new challenge. 😅

WE’RE RUNNING OUT OF ROOM!

The tremendous response to our beta launch has pushed our platform’s current storage capacity to its limits. If we don’t address this soon, it could affect platform performance, the student experience, and eventually our ability to serve more students.

Is it a problem? ABSOLUTELY.

Is it a good problem to have? YOU BET! 🙌🏾

Why? Because it means students are showing up, schools are participating, and our vision is becoming a reality.

Now, we have a plan to expand our capacity, strengthen the platform, and prepare TTS for even more students.

But like everything else in the startup world, the solution comes with a price tag. 💰

We’re navigating the challenges, identifying solutions, and continuing to build something we believe can make a real difference in how young people discover their futures.

Every startup has growing pains. The difference is what you do when you encounter them.

WE KEEP BUILDING! 🏗️

To the schools, educators, students, advisors, supporters, and everyone who has believed in this vision—THANK YOU!

You’re not just watching Trade Talent Search grow. You’re helping make it happen!

And if you’re an organization, business, industry partner, or potential sponsor who believes in preparing the next generation of skilled professionals, we’d love to connect. There are opportunities to help us take TTS to the NEXT LEVEL!

🚨 THIS is why we built Trade Talent Search! 🚨

Meet Hogan Prep senior, Niko Todd.

Niko initially came into Trade Talent Search thinking he wanted to pursue HVAC and get certified in the trade.

But then something happened. 👀

Niko watched a Day In The Life video featuring a professional welder. 🔥

That sparked some curiosity.

So he went a step further.

💬 He started asking questions using the Vertical AI Career Coach.

🔎 He researched the welding pathway.

💰 He explored potential income opportunities.

🎯 And after learning more, Niko’s interest shifted…

Now he’s seriously considering WELDING.

And THAT is the power of career exploration.

We don’t tell students what career they should choose.

We give them the tools to SEARCH. CONNECT. BUILD.

Because sometimes a student doesn’t need someone to tell them what they should be…

They just need the opportunity to SEE what’s possible.

Niko’s story is exactly why Trade Talent Search exists.

And he’s only getting started. 🚀

🚀 DAY 2 with our second group of 30 eighth-grade beta testers!

Today was another reminder of WHY Trade Talent Search exists.

We spent our second day with 30 incredible 8th graders putting TTS through its paces—and this group brought EVERYTHING:

🧠 Smart
👀 Curious
🙌 Engaged
😂 Playful
🔥 Excited
🚀 Ready to be young pioneers

They created their accounts, completed their first survey, explored the platform, asked questions, shared their thoughts—and most importantly, gave us honest feedback that will help make Trade Talent Search better.

But then we discovered something that really stood out…

About HALF of these students were being introduced to the skilled trades for the VERY FIRST TIME.

Think about that.

These are students who are already beginning to think about their futures, yet many had never been meaningfully exposed to the hundreds of career possibilities that exist beyond the traditional “college or bust” conversation.

That’s exactly the gap we’re trying to help close.

Trade Talent Search isn’t just about showing students a list of careers.

It’s about helping them DISCOVER possibilities they may have never known existed.

It’s about giving them a chance to see themselves as an electrician, welder, HVAC technician, heavy equipment operator, CDL driver, airplane mechanic, line technician, plumber, CNC operator—and so many more.

And today, 30 eighth graders got to help us build that experience.

They aren’t just beta testers.

They’re helping shape the future of career exploration.

And we’re listening. 👂

This is just the beginning.

Search. Connect. BUILD.™

TODAY, HOGAN MIDDLE SCHOOL MADE HISTORY WITH TRADE TALENT SEARCH! 🚀

Three weeks ago, we launched beta testing for Trade Talent Search (TTS) across six high schools.

Today was different. Today was SPECIAL.

For the first time, we welcomed MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS into the TTS experience—and it all started with an incredible group of 8th graders at Hogan Prep! 🙌

These scholars weren't just sitting in another computer class. They were helping build something new.

They heard words like MVP, EdTech, skilled trades, and data. They created accounts, began discovering their interests, and experienced what it means to be part of a startup that's still being built.

And here's the coolest part: Their feedback will help shape what TTS ultimately becomes.

Before hundreds—hopefully thousands—of middle schools join this movement, one school, one classroom, and one group of scholars took that first leap.

I can't thank Mr. Johnston enough for welcoming me into his classroom. And of course their innovative PrincipaI, Ms. Long.

I thoroughly enjoyed interacting with these amazing students, hearing their questions, watching their reactions, and seeing their excitement firsthand.

To our Hogan scholars: You have a bright future ahead of you. Whether you dream of becoming an engineer, entrepreneur, electrician, welder, technician, or something you haven't even discovered yet, KEEP EXPLORING!

We're building TTS for YOU. And now, you're helping us build it.

We're just getting started. And we're not stopping until we're the BEST at what we do! 💪
