Apprenticeship is the new unknown calling for some!

[bjcheung77]

It's not a secret or anything, apprenticeship has been a calling for people who believe "further education" is not right for them as they're not inclined to learn within a classroom setting or they have no interest in a particular subject and wish to learn a trade. So many exist, such as automotive, baking or whatever else there is...

I think this is a great option for youth and younger adults is to find a trade they may be interested in, if higher education isn't "right for you now" it may be later on in life, for example, you can get into the trades and take a few years off school, then continue onward by laddering up to a BA in leadership or management for that trade.
