Thank you for the quick response, it did seem like the most reasonable and practical course compared to so many others out here and that had a no hype down to earth approach with a realistic view on what's required to get into the industry. As a follow up question do you think it

Apprenticeships are the IDEAL way still in my opinion but a lot of them were operating under DEI budgets. Like from a recruiting point of view, the amount of money spent on these programs didn't make sense. So many got budget allocated from DEI buckets (e.g. corporate branding, initiatives to increase diversity at the company). With major DEI budget cuts as a result of government changes, programs have becomes a lot smaller (operating under recruiting) or shutdown.
