The German dual education system addresses this. Normal jobs have a formal education system where young people learn practical things in companies and at the same time they learn more theoretical things in special schools. One gets some kind of degree and it also enables them a further path for education and career. You could have gotten education in jobs like plumber, aircraft mechanic, medical assistant - there are more than three hundred apprenticeship occupations.
This gives young persons with more practical skills a real education and career path. There is also a positive social status for those who went through this system.
The companies also pay them for taking this education. Around 850 Euro per month.
