Kinda. A non-completer is someone who goes to school, gets the classes that actually help him get a job, then split for the money-making pastures. Bascially, they turn “community college” into “trade school”. :)
community college used to be trade school or voc school.
Clinton decided everyone had to go to college and made it mandatory for voc schools to meet the requirements to be a college.
They should all go back to being voc schools.
My son is taking the courses he needs for his certification. The certifying organization knows that putting in the hours and passing the test is what counts not the degree.
My local county college is doing exactly that. They hired a new president a few years ago, and his primary goal is to get AWAY from an academic focus and toward a training/certification focus in skilled trades.
The problem with these schools is too many prereqs that have nothing to do with what you want to learn and they teach to slow
Which is, by the way, a great idea. It adds up to a job well done...
