Restructuring Education for Trade with Matt Beaudreau of Apogee Strong

On this episode of the Skilled Trade series on The Gas Compression Podcast, host Michael Haning welcomes back Matt Beaudreau, Co-Founder of Apogee Strong. Michael and Matt also founded Acton Academy Placer together in 2016.

Apogee Strong is a global, online mentorship program that prepares young men to grow into providers, protectors, and future leaders. Matt blatantly says he wants to create a revolution to disrupt the current education system.

Facing the problem of a shortage of skilled trade workers in the industry, Matt addresses the causes and highlights potential solutions. The opportunity for better storytelling surrounding the trades industry is there. Matt and Michael discuss the impact Mike Rowe has made here, but the message is still missing today's youth.

Matt talks about Apogee Strong’s foundations for providing youth with opportunities to sample a breadth of experiences. Then, having had concrete experiences, they’re able to see what they truly like and can hone in on their value proposition from there.

How many parents want their kids to change the world? How many parents believe their kids can change the world? Matt works for this answer: Every Kid. And it will be their choice to make it happen.
