Not really. Up until I think at least the 1970s, on-the-job training and apprenticeships were a lot more common. Both the expectation that employees will already have the required skills and expertise and across-the-board requirements for university qualifications are relatively new changes.

If you can find a way to get workers to send a true signal of qualification without blowing four years of their lives, and can pocket even a sliver of the savings, then you will be very very rich.
