This seems a bit out of touch with the current career reality Americans face. Companies aren't training people nor do they want to train people, and 'career educations' generally don't exist outside of the trades and even that has been moving more towards in-class experience first, then training.
College also increasingly ties in industry experience with in-class experience as companies are only willing to take on interns that are currently studying at colleges they're partnered with. Not to mention the way people use it as a networking opportunity and a chance to try out new things before having to dedicate themselves to a career they might despise.
