About

We begin today by talking about school and the way it has changed throughout the years. There are vocational schools that teach you in the trades, such as how to be a welder, carpenter, plumber, beautician, butcher, auto mechanic, and so on. Unfortunately, college education has become oversold while vocational training is now undersold. I then tell a story about when I received a phone call from Washington asking if I could participate in helping them identify folks who could define what the workforce of the future looks like. After spending some time in the Oval Office, I discovered many things didn’t happen in The White House as they are reported. I met with many workers while there, who were very skilled in their vocations that are getting paid 200,000+ per year. These were people who went into the trades rather than to college. I give options of what people can do after high school that can lead to great success or failure, depending on which path you take for the career that’s right for you. I mention the fact that there needs to be an apprenticeship program for high school graduates and kids that would do much better in a vocational career as opposed to a career that requires a college education.

I know it has been for a long time, but I think we’re at a point where college education is almost being oversold and vocational education is being undersold. And the demands in the workplace are being heavily dominated by the needs for folks with vocational educations and a skilled trade.” 2:56Reach Out To Keith, Get Help and Resources: https://dincpie.com/
