With many industries facing staffing shortages, some employers have turned to high school students to fill the gaps. Job training programs for high schoolers are on the rise across industries. These programs offer students hands on learning, real world experience and often guarantee employment after successful completion of the program.

What do these training programs look like and what are the benefits? How can we encourage more students to join these programs? And can these programs better prepare our students for the future?

In this episode, Chuck Goodrich joins Kevin to discuss the benefits of job training programs for high school students.
