Meet the Founder

Built on real experience, practical knowledge, and a commitment to helping

others succeed in the field.

Michael Carter

Michael Carter is the founder of Service Trade Institute, built with a clear purpose—to simplify training and make real-world knowledge accessible to anyone serious about building a career in the service industry.

With years of hands-on experience in kitchen exhaust cleaning, inspections, and working with NFPA standards, he understands what it actually takes to perform the work correctly and run a successful operation.

Experience That Comes From the Field

Michael’s background is rooted in real job environments—not classrooms. From handling complex cleaning systems to ensuring compliance and managing operations, his experience covers every part of the process.

This hands-on knowledge is what shapes the training at Service Trade Institute—focused on practical application, not theory.

After working in the industry, it became clear that most training programs were either too theoretical or incomplete. People were learning—but still unsure when it came to real jobs.

Service Trade Institute was created to solve that problem by providing clear, structured, and practical training that prepares individuals for real-world challenges.
