Problem
So many teens are coming out of
high school wishing to be nurses, teachers, golf managers (true story) without the proper knowledge of how competitive these fields can be. Nursing is now one of the hardest things to get into in Ontario, as well as a Con-ed program for teaching. Years ago, there was such a surplus in teachers that many were stuck on the supply line for years. Nursing used to be quite an easy program for young students, however now everyone wants to be a nurse and it has become a very congested field. Engineers and Tech jobs are desperate for new employees... so what can we do to push students in the right direction?
