Company Summary

WorkAmerica is building the LinkedIn for the Skilled Trades. We have a network of community colleges representing 25% of the industry that current want to work with us. We're selling access to the platform to employers. So it's simple - build this network of welders, machinists, HVAC techs, etc by having schools serve as the efficient funnel to get profiles at nearly zero cost, then sell employers on access to the platform.
