All the talk about junior colleges, community colleges, and voc schools -- somet
hing that dried up in my area decades ago was affordable trade classes...
You wanted to learn welding basics, metal working, household electrical work, et
c, there were 2-3 month long classes that would meet 1-2x week at night and you'
d pay a couple of hundred bucks, maybe a bit more.
Those don't seem to exist around here anymore -- and haven't for a long time bec
ause I can remember seeing them when I was kid at 10-15 in the "community educat
ion" fliers we'd get, but by the time I was 25-30 those were gone. The best you
could get was to sign up for a certificate series which was often several thousa
nd dollars or more.
