“I like to have that power of being able to build my own thing,” said 16-year-old Erin Greenway. “Like, you need to fix your rocking chair? Yeah, I got you.”
Erin Greenway, 16, uses a Skilsaw at the Alaska Works Partnership spring break training on March 9, 2022. Carpentry, she said, is empowering.
Greenway is home-schooled and taught herself some of the basics. But, she said, learning from an instructor takes her skills to a new level. She doesn’t know if she wants to work in construction after high school, but she does have a dream project in mind: an aviary. “That’s what every teacher said you had to do: go to college,” he said. “What’s great about this is that it shows these kids that there’s a different route. You don’t have to go to college to be successful. You can go through the trades, have it as a career, and still make a great living.”
“I’ve had a couple students come in here and their family came from the electrical background, so they were determined they’re going to become an electrician,” he said. “And then they spent a week introducing themselves to electrical wiring and decided, ‘This is not at all what I had in mind.’ And then they became a pile driver, or a plumber, or an ironworker.”Nusbaum said most apprenticeship programs pay $20 an hour during the first year.
