Alternatives to College: Apprenticeships provide another successful pathway to adulthood

from LiberatED Podcast · host Kerry McDonald

Despite today's dominant cultural messaging that insists that young people must go to college, there are in fact multiple pathways to adulthood and to a fulfilling, successful life.  A longtime leader in building alternatives to college is Praxis, an apprenticeship boot camp program that helps young people to gain mastery of sought-after workplace skills while connecting these apprentices with eager employers.  I am thrilled to be joined on this episode by Cameron Sorsby, CEO of Praxis.
