Excited to kickstart your career, but dreading the thought of student loans?
Believe it or not, there is another way to learn skills that translate to good jobs.
Look at St. Petersburg College in Florida for an example.
Schools across the country have partnerships with employers for apprenticeships.
At Southern Piedmont Community College outside of Charlotte, N.C., there is ApprenticeshipIMPACT.
For students, its attractive because they have a job, he told the magazine.
They also have a wage that is progressive, so they arent forced to choose between work and school.
All of it is tuition-waived, so they dont have to pay a thing.
Probably not as good as youd like.
It always seems like an uphill battle to build (and keep) a decent amount in savings.
But what if your car breaks down, or you have a sudden medical bill?
Heres what we learned from the U.S. governments website,apprenticeship.gov.
What is a Registered Apprenticeship?
Use the U.S. Other listings dont mention a preference for prior experience.
Indeed.com estimates the starting salary range will be $37,000 to $47,000 a year for the on-the-job training.
Or, jot down retail and Texas and 172 listings appear.
Start looking and you could be making money in months, and fully trained within a year or two.
(Can you sense my millennial sarcasm there?)
You know which ones were talking about: rent, utilities, cell phone bill, insurance, groceries…
