Our mission is to inform, inspire, and connect curious learners ages 13+ to career paths and professionals in skilled trades.
Big Ideas is here to play a leading role in forging that next chapter.
Through an immersive, hands-on skilled trade experience and one-on-one instruction from our team of passionate trades professionals, we are opening young minds to the true impact they can have with a career in skilled trades.
Our Mobile Learning Lab brings the experience directly to you.
The Lab provides schools with a unique approach to CTE curriculum while also equipping industry, nonprofit, and civic organizations with a new scope of opportunity for their own young adults.
With engaging VR experiences that simulate everything from heavy equipment and welding to woodworking and beyond, our focus is on promoting all skilled trades for all people so that young learners might uncover a new career path and a natural ability they’ve never tapped into before.
Without the trades, we wouldn’t be here today.
And who knows where we’d be headed tomorrow? By informing, inspiring, and connecting with young minds, we’re opening the door to career paths in skilled labor, management, supervisory, and entrepreneurial roles, so they can ensure the infrastructure around us continues to thrive for generations to come.
That’s the big idea.
