There are some huge advantages to a learn from doing program. And that’s the kind of system you find in trade schools. They’re set up to train you to be completely prepared for a specific job. Of course, trade school training is for jobs most younger people wouldn’t consider “glamorous” or “savage.”
But the learn from doing method is über (super) focused.
I realize plumbers don’t tend to build huge social followings. And you won’t find many of them in the beautiful people circles. But have you seen how much a good plumber can make? Yikes! I’ve had to pay for their services. So, I can tell you, they’re not cheap.
And plumbers, electricians, welders, dental hygienists, mechanics, pharmacy technicians, and cosmetologists don’t have to spend tens of thousands of dollars and 4 years of their lives on training. Many trade schools provide you the training you need, to get a specific, good-paying job, in one or two years.
That’s because, as I said, they’re focused on specific training. And once you finish your training, you can get a diploma or certificate. Or they’ll make sure you’re prepared to take a licensing test. And you can even become an apprentice or journeyman for the trade of your preference.
PLUS, trade schools don’t typically have stringent education requirements. So enrollment is “open.”
And, if you’re the parent of a young person who shows skills in the trades I’ve already mentioned (or plenty of others) you might find this very interesting. Trade schools don’t include the whole “college culture” (insert picture of binge-drinking partiers on spring break here). Nope. You just go to classes and train.
Über focused.
Here are some other jobs that trade schools can prepare you for:
- Paralegal
- Nurse
- Graphic Designer
- Aircraft mechanic
- Chef
- Marine mechanic
- Construction manager
- Massage therapist
