Valuable career planning resource for teens!

Apprenticeship Career Planning for Teens: A Comprehensive Guide to Securing Apprenticeships in High Demand Industries without Taking on Years of College Debt by P.D. Mason is a valuable resource for teens looking to choose a career path. It explains what an apprenticeship is, how to apply, the educational and work related experience required and so much more.

Skilled trades are in high demand and the audiobook goes on to explain the financial rewards of having a career in this area. High demand areas mean there will always be work for you.

It even has a chapter focussed on money management which I thought was really great as many young people do not consider how they will handle the money they make. In addition, the cost of an apprenticeship is significantly less than a college education so your debt (if any) can be easily paid off. You will get paid for the work that you do during an apprenticeship which is another bonus, and will be trained by an experienced worker. After the training you will have learned some life long skills.

My son is now trying to figure out his career path. This book has given us some ideas and I highly recommend it for all teens and parents trying to figure out this important life decision.

Great information for a different career direction

I had no idea the amount of apprenticeship opportunities that are out there, and graduating teens and young adults can benefit from this option. Author P. D. Mason sheds light on the many career paths one can take by starting as an apprentice, rather than going the college route. We are all aware of the astronomical debt incurred from student loans, that will take years to pay back. More apprenticeship programs are being offered these days, and this book explains where and how to find them. According to the author, information technology and "work from home" jobs exploded during the COVID years, making way for apprenticeship programs. As a result, there are many companies with differing types of programs, which are explained in the book. As our society changes and new skills are needed, many young people can benefit from getting started in an apprenticeship program. Rather than being burdened with college tuition debt, start at an entry level position, and your salary will increase year after year. This is an excellent source for any teen or young adult looking at career options. I highly recommend. 5 stars!!

The College Alternative

I am very excited to have just finished listening to this book, Apprenticeship Career Planning for Teens. This is a truly wonderful book that the world needs right now. Listening through the introduction, I really resonated with the author. I too completed high school and had no idea what I was going to do with my life. I did know however, that I didn’t have interest in college at that time. So like the author, I enrolled in an automotive program to learn how to work on cars. I too quickly realized it wasn’t for me and quit. And yes, had student loans to begin paying. After bouncing from job to job I settled down in an amazing industry that allowed me to go to college and paid for my degrees. I was fortunate.

I currently have a son in his mid twenties, that needs to listen to this and strongly consider apprenticeship to turn around his life. I am glad there is a resource like this out their to provide guidance.

Interesting alternative career path

Traditionally, once a person graduates from high school, it is expected that the next step is college. This author shares in this book the alternative which is going the apprenticeship path. This is a great resource for teens who have not decided yet on their next steps after high school, and to help take off some pressure on them with the need to go the traditional 4-year college route. It is possible to find success and satisfaction on this other career path, and I would recommend this book to teens to open up their minds to this option. This book is narrated well and worth a listen.

Great future-planning knowledge!

If you're tired of the same old college and career planning conversations, this audiobook is a game-changer! P.D. Mason's approach, focusing on apprenticeships, is a breath of fresh air. I appreciated the practical advice and step-by-step process to secure a well-paying, sustainable career without the burden of student loan debt. The stories and insights shared are eye-opening and inspiring, making it an essential listen for high school graduates, young adults, or anyone seeking a rewarding career path outside the traditional college route. Highly recommended for those looking to secure a financially secure future!

Insightful on alternate route to career success!

For those (teens and adults alike) contemplating a career in a long list of industries, the path of apprenticeship, instead of a traditional college degree, is little known but according to this book, a hidden gem strategy for career success. I enjoyed the real-life stories of people choosing this path and their journey along the way and the practical advice on how to do it drawn from the author's own experience. It's no longer true that a successful career requires a college degree, and this book smartly highlights all the advantages of seeking a paid apprenticeship, including starting off free of student debt and obtaining hands-on work knowledge and know-how in the industry chosen from those who've been doing it for a long time. Great present for the teen in your life or anyone seeking a career change. The narrator was also very good and engaging.
