Not everyone assumes that life after high school automatically entails immediate enrollment in college. Many teens graduate ready to pursue a more practical education. Amy and Mike invited education market researcher Brady Colby to explain the implications of enrolling in a trade school.

What are five things you will learn in this episode?

  1. What exactly is a trade school?

  2. What are recent trends for trade schools?

  3. Why might trade schools be getting more popular?

  4. How should parents or guidance advisors incorporate trades into post-high school planning?

  5. Are the rise of trade schools a threat to so-called traditional higher ed schools and opportunities?
