You still gotta pay for the schooling. There are grants for in demand things. It all comes down to demand and where that demand is. Like if you wanna go weld on a pipeline or work on a mine/rig 2 weeks at a time than you’ll have way more options. In town trades have a lot more competition for apprenticeships and our lower population density means you’re once again going where the demand is. I got a cousin building houses on an island I had never heard of until he told me.
