CenTex Trade Careers

Let's Put Your Clients Into $50K+ Jobs
In 6-12 Weeks (Not Years)

TWC-Approved • 100% Online • Zero Transportation/Childcare Barriers
We've Never Heard a Model Like This — Because Nobody Else Does It

Who We Are: CenTex Trade Careers (CTTC) is a TWC-approved online trade school in Hewitt, Texas. We offer 120-clock-hour certificate programs in HVAC, Plumbing, Electrical, and Appliance Repair. Every student receives a free laptop, personal Success Coach, and industry-recognized certifications (EPA 608, OSHA 10, NATE Ready).

Why Partner With Us: Your clients come to you because they need help. We eliminate EVERY barrier that stops them from changing their lives: No transportation issues. No childcare conflicts. No overwhelming debt. No rigid semester schedules. They study from home, on their schedule, and graduate job-ready in 6-12 weeks with credentials employers are desperate for.

What Makes Us Different: We're not a community college that takes 2 years. We're not a "sign up and figure it out" online scam. Every student gets a Success Coach. Rolling enrollment means they start THIS WEEK, not next semester. And we actually care if they get hired — because that's the whole point.

🤝 What Makes CTTC Different From Every Other "Partner"

  • 100% online — no facility, no commute, no parking, no excuses
  • Personal Success Coach assigned (not a recording, a real human)
  • Free laptop included (removes the #1 tech barrier)
  • Industry certifications built-in (OSHA 10, EPA 608, NATE Ready)
  • Continued access for 1.5x program duration (not "good luck, bye")
  • Practice tests, review guides, test vouchers post-graduation
  • Small class sizes (max 40:1 student/teacher ratio, not 200:1)
  • Rolling enrollment — they start within days, not months

🎯 Who This Serves (Your Entire Client Base)

  • WIOA-eligible individuals (we're on multiple Texas ETPL lists)
  • Veterans transitioning to civilian careers (GI Bill-friendly)
  • Reentry populations rebuilding after incarceration
  • Single parents needing flexible, at-home schedules
  • High school grads exploring alternatives to 4-year college
  • Career changers seeking stable, recession-proof income
  • Rural clients with transportation challenges
  • Anyone ready to work but lacking credentials or training

💰 Three Partnership Models — We Make It Work For You

Your Client Has WIOA/Grant

$0 to Client

Their grant covers tuition. If it doesn't cover 100%, CTTC scholarships the rest. Client pays nothing. You send referral → We enroll → Invoice you or workforce board.

Your Organization Has Scholarship Funds

$0 to Client

If your scholarship doesn't cover the full cost, CTTC covers the gap. You pay what you can → We cover the rest → Client pays $0 → Everybody wins.

Discounted Referral Rate (For Your Clients)

$2,000-$3,000

If your clients are self-pay, we offer 50% off for nonprofit referrals ($2K vs. $5K public price). You get credit for placement + your clients get a deal.

📋 How Referrals Work (Keep It Simple)

  1. You refer the client: Email us with client name, contact info, and which program they're interested in.
  2. We schedule the enrollment call: We handle the sales conversation, payment setup, and onboarding (you don't lift a finger).
  3. We send you an invoice (if applicable): If your org is paying, we invoice you. If it's WIOA, we invoice the workforce board. If it's self-pay with your discount, client pays us directly.
  4. Client starts within days: They get laptop, login credentials, Success Coach assignment, and course access immediately.
  5. We keep you updated: Monthly progress reports (or weekly if you want). You know exactly how your referrals are doing.
  6. They graduate & get hired: We help with job placement, resume support, and interview prep. Your KPIs go up. Your funders are happy. You look like a hero.
