Not all students are destined to attend a 4-year college. Some prefer a trade school to fill high-demand, well-paying jobs. Director Dr. Jakub Prokop of Pinellas Technical College Clearwater, says they have experienced a lot of growth since the pandemic. The programs usually take a little over a year to complete, and most students are debt-free at the end. Almost all 30 of their programs are close to capacity and the average age of the students is down to age 22. https://lnkd.in/eq6D-WjP
