A Trade School (also known as Technical School is a post-secondary

educational institution designed to train students for a specific job in a

skilled trade career.
Trade schools are specially designed to prepare students for very
specific, skill-based jobs – jobs that require detailed knowledge and technique
in a given field. Trade schools do not offer general education courses, such as
basic math or communication, in their programs. Rather, trade schools provide
career-focused training and, upon graduation, certification in one particular
area of study.
A trade or vocational school is an educational institution geared toward
helping students get employment-ready skills and knowledge for
particular occupations.
Vocational schools are also known by other terms. For example, a
technical or vocational school is generally the same as a trade school or career
college; the terms are usually interchangeable.
Trade school goes by multiple names. It can be called technical school,
vocational school, or career college. Trade schools are secondary schools
designed to prepare you for a career in the skilled trades.
At a trade school, you learn a combination of hands-on skills and
theoretical knowledge directly related to the occupation you want to
have. Depending on your intended vocation, you'll learn a range of very
specific techniques using industry-relevant equipment in facilities that
simulate real-world work settings

Good examples of the careers in the trades are:

 Plumber

 HVAC technician

 Mechanic

 Cosmetologist

Massage therapist

Trade schools offer:

  Courses offered in the evening, on weekends, or even  online
 Campuses that are more accessible and closer to where students
live or work
 Easier admission processes
 Smaller class sizes
 Shorter, more streamlined programs
 Personalized, hands-on instruction in well-equipped training
facilities that simulate real-world work settings
 Externships with actual employers
 Job search assistance

Agricultural School

Agricultural education encompasses the study of applied sciences (e.g.,

biology, chemistry, physics), and business management principles.
One of the major purposes of agricultural education is to apply the
knowledge and skills learned in several different disciplines to agricultural
education.
Agricultural education goes beyond knowledge and skills development in
that students are able to develop an understanding of:
1) the significance of agriculture in a global society through the
application of scientific and business principles and problem solving
strategies; and
2) the interdependency and relationships between the agricultural
industry and other significant business interwoven with the entire
economic and social structure of the community, state, nation, and
world.
This program places an emphasis on food systems, environmental
issues, and development of life skills.
The study of agricultural education focuses on the needs of individuals
and groups and in developing individually satisfying and socially
responsible knowledge, skills, and occupational values.
Such a focus recognizes the value of, and relies heavily on, experiences
as the context in which knowledge and skills are learned.
Agricultural education focuses on, but is not limited to, study in
horticulture, forestry, conservation, natural resources, agricultural products
and processing, production of food and fiber, aquaculture and other
agricultural products, mechanics, sales and service, economics, marketing,
and leadership development.
Agricultural education programs assist with providing lifelong learning
opportunities in and about agriculture.
Agricultural education provides opportunities to learn basic agricultural skills
and knowledge, occupation training and retraining, and professional growth
and development.
agricultural education focuses on three major components:
Agricultural education is delivered through three interconnected components:
Classroom or laboratory instruction.
Experiential learning — Learning experiences that usually take place outside of
the classroom, supervised by the agriculture instructor.
Leadership education — delivered through student organizations such as the
National FFA Organization, the National Young Farmer Education Association,
National Postsecondary Agricultural Student Organization and others.
Agricultural Education uses a three-circle model of instruction. These are
classroom and laboratory instruction, leadership development, and experiential
learning. The successful integration of each of these three components results
in a strong program that produces well rounded individuals who are prepared
to be leaders in agriculture, business, and industry.

1. formal classroom instruction,
2. career experience programs, and
3. leadership development.
These components are delivered through a competency-based curriculum in
the context of agriculture.
Agricultural education prepares students for successful careers and a lifetime
of informed choices in the global agriculture, food, fiber and natural resources
systems.
Through agricultural education, students are provided opportunities for
leadership development, personal growth and career success.
Agricultural education is a systematic program of instruction available to
students desiring to learn about the science, business, technology of plant and
animal production and/or about the environmental and natural resources
systems.
Agricultural education teaches students about agriculture, food and natural
resources. Through these subjects, agricultural educators teach students a
wide variety of skills, including science, math, communications, leadership,
management and technology.
