What happen to apprenticeships, why is some much faith placed on a college education? I have never met anyone that learned how to do a job or make money in college. All college teaches is theory, not application. No to mention college requires you take other classes that are totally useless for your career path. Not to mention every new college grad ive had work under me has had to spend 6 months to a year training because they didnt anything about how to do the job. Really before 1950 apprenticeships were how most people learned how to be a professional. Why did college win out as the word of god in education?

Why aren't apprenticeships more common outside of construction? Apprenticeships to me seem like the absolute best and most efficient way to get into a career. Learning on the job with progressing wages as your skills increase, and not racking up a big college debt. College just seems so inefficent because you spend all this time and money just to get a piece of paper and only a fraction of what you learned, if any, might actually go towards what you do on the job. So why does it seem like there are so few apprenticeships out there, and the only ones seem to be labor intensive construction trades?

This is because a school wants to maintain its academic reputation and discourages boys from doing well, as girls are seen as the more academic achievers. I

And yet at 32, i would be positively welcomed into higher ed.

Whats happened to apprenticeships and Youth Training? So many older people in this country have skills such as electricians, mechanics, plumbing etc because in those days it was easy to leave school and go into an apprenticeship. You could learn a skill which in time might allow you to set up your own business and earn a decent living. These days our younger generation are condemned to work in callcentres for £6 an hour, or else go to university and get massively into debt studying Computer Science and the like, whilst immigrants do the skilled jobs. Is this right?
