Maybe a little OT...
There was a fascinating Background Briefing program a couple of weeks
ago on the ABC that discussed vocational training.
"There are now hundreds of thousands of young people being trained in jobs
that are subsidised by the government, in a program called the New
Apprenticeship Scheme. But most of these are being trained as cleaners,
shop assistants, aged care workers, clerical workers, truck drivers and
hamburger flippers. For every four trainees we pump out, only one of them
is what we used to call an apprentice."

I'm encouraging my kids to think about a (real) trade as a career
possibility - I can see a guaranteed path to success there.
