In high school, I was given the opportunity to duel-enroll in a trade school to become a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and join an association known as Heath Occupation Students of America (HOSA).

For example, the number of individuals attaining a postsecondary education is still very low even though access to financial aid is available. The rising cost of living and other economic

It is further noted that some of the “income for the top people in a wide variety of occupations that do not require a college degree is higher than the average income for many occupations that require a B.A.” Murray, C.
