That is a great way to look at it. I am a real estate investor looking into the pros and cons of investing in the campuses of technical schools. They are everywhere. I think your sentiment is a great way to sort the healthy/longer lasting schools from the ones open to technology change. Fields like nursing, dental hygiene, server maintenance, etc will be more likely to succeed than paralegal, medical billing, etc. Some jobs are inherently (and always will be) onsite.

I don't know anything more than what you provided in this post, but it sounds like you're talking about for-profit education centers. These are generally looked down upon and are coming under heavy scrutiny by the U.S. goverment as of lat for their false advertisements and broken promises.
- graham1776 11y agoYes, for-profit education centers. I'd really like to look into this more...Do you have any sources I could read into regarding decline and/or stigma? I feel there is more of a stigma on the larger "vocational" schools like University of Phoenix that offer college-esqe experiences and soft skills vs. blue collar/technical schools that have clear job paths and hard skills after graduation. True? Or are they all stigmatized?
- mediaman 11y agoI don't think they're stigmatized, I think we need more of them. I recruit employees at some of these 'hard' technical schools for things like CNC machinists.
