Editorial Policy and Standards

Trade-Schools.net publishes career and training information to help people explore vocational and career-focused education options, compare paths, and connect with schools that offer relevant programs. Some content is published under the byline “Trade-Schools.net Editorial Team” when it is created, reviewed, or maintained collaboratively.

What we cover

We focus on careers and training options across skilled trades, health care, business, technology, and other career-driven fields. Our goal is to explain what a path looks like, what it typically costs, how long it takes, and what outcomes are realistic.

How we research and build pages

We aim to use primary or authoritative sources whenever possible, then translate them into plain language. Depending on the topic, sources may include:

  • U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) data (wages, employment, outlook)
  • National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) resources and related datasets
  • U.S. Census Bureau data where relevant (demographics and regional context)
  • Government or regulatory sources (state licensing boards, consumer disclosures)
  • Accreditor and oversight resources when discussing accreditation and authorization

We also review school websites and published program information when describing what a specific institution offers.

How we update content

Many pages display a “Last Updated” date. We review and refresh pages when key facts change (for example: wages, job outlook, licensing requirements, or major program shifts), and we periodically audit important evergreen pages to keep them current. Updates may include revising figures, improving explanations, and replacing outdated references.

School listings, advertising partners, and compensation

Some schools and programs shown on Trade-Schools.net are advertising partners. We are compensated when visitors request and receive information from a school. The lists of schools and programs on this site are not comprehensive. They may include only schools that choose to advertise and the programs those schools choose to promote at a given time.

Affiliate link disclosure

Some pages may include affiliate links. If you use an affiliate link to make a purchase, we may earn a small commission. This does not increase the price you pay.

Privacy and lead handling

If you submit an information-request form for a specific school, the contact details and program interest you provide are shared with that school (or the school’s designated service providers or agents) so it can respond to your request. We are compensated for these connections.

For full details, please see our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use. If you want to opt out or request removal of personal information, please use our Do Not Sell My Info / removal page.

Corrections policy

If you believe something on Trade-Schools.net is inaccurate or out of date, contact us with:

  • the page URL
  • what you believe is wrong
  • the corrected information and a reliable source (if you have one)

We review credible requests and update pages when warranted, including adjusting “Last Updated” dates where appropriate.
