The Career Education Department at Trades Day
Last Thursday, the Porterville College Career Education Department joined over 1000 High School Students at the Porterville Fairgrounds for the 5th annual Trades Day, hosted by the Tulare-Kings College & Career Collaborative, Tulare County Office of Education, Kings County Office of Education, and Porterville Unified School District.
 
From testing out cutting-edge augmented reality welding headsets that simulate real-world sparks without any of the danger, to crafting custom metal heart shapes with real flame to take home to loved ones, future generations of professionals got a firsthand look at high-paying and high-demand career pathways.
 
PC's Career Education Department was proud to showcase hands-on instruction in pipe welding, structural welding, and fabrication, ensuring our students find a welcoming place to belong and build the skills they need to sustain themselves and their families at Porterville College.
