What to Know: As many as 400,000 welders—along with millions of other skilled trade workers—will be needed in coming years.
The TPPF Take: The “college for all” movement ignores the needs of many, many students—and our economy.
“Not every person needs, wants or should go to college,” says TPPF’s Sam Johnson. “We should help academically disinclined students find more relevant and engaging studies by exposing them to non-college pathways into profitable careers in the skilled crafts and trades, jobs that are in increasingly high demand and pay well over the median salary.”
