About Bring Back the Trades Inc: Bring Back the Trades (BBTT) is a national 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to promoting skilled trade careers, awarding scholarships, and breaking down the cultural barriers that discourage people from entering the trades.
About the Event: Bring Back the Trades Skills Expo events are high-energy, hands-on expos designed to educate and inspire students, families, and community leaders about the incredible opportunities in the trades.
BBTT invites companies to join as sponsors and exhibitors—bringing the trades to life through interactive experiences like tool demos, skill challenges, simulations, or hands-on stations. It's a powerful way to connect with thousands of attendees, including middle and high school students, teachers, families, adults considering career changes, and industry influencers.
