Summary

College or apprenticeship? Drafted in response to President Obama’s challenge for all Americans to complete at least one year of post-secondary education or training, this issue brief shows that graduates of apprenticeship and sector training programs actually have higher earning potential than graduates of community colleges.

Description

President Obama has issued a challenge for all Americans and all those involved in education and training: He has called for all Americans to complete at least one year of education or training beyond high school. He has particularly urged that unemployed workers should be able to use their time not working to build skills to advance their careers when they return to employment.
