"You need to go to college to get a good job!" This is a familiar mantra, especially to high school seniors contemplating their futures. But what if a college degree is presently out of reach, financially or otherwise? Is the traditional wisdom really true? According to this excellent news-style video, the answer is a resounding "no!" Hosted by two engaging professional reporters, the program presents four career tracks that do not require a college education--medical technician, retail salesperson, food service worker, and security guard--offering an inside look at each job through upbeat interviews with real people in these positions, who provide tips on being successful in their chosen fields. In addition to motivational interviews, the program highlights practical information such as necessary skills, subjects to concentrate on in high school, and resources to contact for further information. Highly recommended. Aud: H, C, P. (E. Gieschen)
