[quote=Anonymous]A lot of community colleges have vocational programs -- construction management, landscape design/maintenance, EMT, various similar options where classes aren't structured for transfer to a four-year school. I get where you're coming from -- got one who isn't academically inclined in the least. It's a little puzzling to us since we didn't go that path and our other kid is very focused on school/college. He found a job "pulling wire" for an electrician that was a good fit. Anyone can do it entry-level and then there's a door to eventually getting a license. I'm sure similar options are out there for plumbing and whatever other trades. Plumbers in particular can make a ton of money where we live. All these CS grads are going to need someone to build their houses, tile their bathrooms, clear out their plumbing, etc.[/quote]
