Article summary

Hello there,
This is Madisen Hallberg, CTO of TradeSchool Inc. Thank you for taking the time to evaluate TradeSchool.
I would like to give you a quick background on "Why did we build TradeSchool?".

Origins in the trade

TradeSchool Inc was founded by Lance Hallberg in 2012. Prior to the founding of TradeSchool, Lance went through the apprenticeship and journeyed out as an Inside Apprentice from Local 48 in Portland, Oregon. Lance saw firsthand the struggles of the office as they tried their best to manage a massive and complex organization with the limited resources they had. Wanting to help, Lance started the developement of TradeSchool as a one-stop tracking software for apprenticeship schools. As the program grew, Lance learned how to help the office and administrators best serve their apprentices and committee. With over 15 years experience in database and software development, specifically in the apprenticeship industry, Lance began to pursue TradeSchool full time as more Electrical Apprenticeships became interested in the software and it's timesaving abilities. Lance is a speaker at the FileMaker Developer conference, author of VT Tutorials on PHP & FileMaker, and a graduate of the IBEW Inside Wireman apprenticeship program in Portland, OR.

Drawing upon years of experience in the construction industry, combined with technical and business skills, TradeSchool Inc brings together a team of talented individuals and an increased customer base through partnerships with multiple apprenticeships across the US.

We hope that as you learn to use this software, you also enjoy getting to know our team and utilizing TradeSchool as a service company to get you on your feet and running toward efficiency and innovation using the robust features that TradeSchool has to offer.

Regards,
Madisen Hallberg
CTO - TradeSchool
