Online, affordable, and self-paced courses that teach you everything you need to land a job in one of the most in-demand roles in structural design.
Truss Designers are in high demand and for good reason. They help shape everything from residential homes to massive commercial buildings. With starting salaries averaging $60K+ and strong growth in the construction and design industries, this career offers a stable, lucrative path without the cost or time of college or trade school. If you’re detail-oriented, tech-savvy, and ready to make an impact, truss design might be the perfect fit.
Right now, most truss designers are hired straight from truss plants and tossed into complex software with no real instruction. There’s no standardized training, no foundation in blueprint reading, and no guidance on industry best practices. That’s where Structural Component Academy comes in. We’re filling the gap and training the next generation of confident, capable designers.
Our mission is to transform complexity into simplicity in the world of component design, giving you the tools and confidence to succeed. This isn’t just a course-it’s your launchpad into an in-demand, fulfilling career.
Our fully online, self-paced courses are built to teach you everything you need-from the ground up. Each level includes 8 structured modules with quizzes to test your knowledge along the way. You’ll have 3 months to complete each level, and by the end, you’ll be ready to step into your first job-or advance in your current one.
