How to Level Up Trade Skills

New World - Trade Skill Levels

In order to level up your trade skills, players must perform gathering, refining, and crafting tasks repeatedly until enough XP is earned to increase a particular skill's level. For example, mining ore continuously will level up your Mining trade skill.

Do note that levels will not carry over to other skills in the same trade skill category! Leveling up Mining or Fishing, for example, will not level up the other Gathering Skills.
