Building Skills for Real Careers—and Real Life

At Second Wind Pathway, we believe that success doesn’t always start in a traditional classroom — it often begins with learning a skill.
Our Vocational Training Program, offered in partnership with local technical schools and industry training affiliates, helps participants gain the job-ready skills needed to access real employment opportunities in high-demand industries.

Whether you’re entering the workforce for the first time, reentering after a break, or looking to pivot into a new career, we help you turn your interests into income — and your passion into purpose.

What We Offer

Participants can explore career pathways and certification programs in areas such as:

• Cosmetology & Barbering
• Culinary Arts & Hospitality
• Construction & Skilled Trades
• Automotive Technology
• Information Technology
• Business & Entrepreneurship
• Healthcare Support Services
• Digital Marketing & Media
  Training areas may vary based on availability and interest

Each program includes a mix of hands-on training, classroom instruction, and real-world application, preparing participants to meet employer expectations or start their own ventures.

Why Vocational Training Matters

Not everyone wants—or needs—a traditional college path. Vocational training helps students:

• Build a skillset they can use immediately
• Qualify for in-demand jobs with growth potential
• Gain confidence through achievement and certification
• Lay the foundation for a career or business of their own

Your Career, Your Way

Through our intake and career exploration process, we help each participant choose a path that fits their interests, strengths, and long-term goals. You’ll receive coaching, mentorship, and support every step of the way.

Learn a Skill. Launch a Career. Change Your Future.

This isn’t just job training. It’s life transformation through education, skill-building, and economic empowerment.
