<p>I nearly flunked statistics I only passed because I was a
graduating senior. However, I did flunk Rocks & Clods 2124
and had to find another 4 hours to graduate. Then 35 years later
I retire as a Geotechnical engineer designing foundations. !!! <br>

<div dir="ltr">I'm not sure if that is an interesting statistic,
or simply predictable statistically. All you just said is that
a bell-curve distribution for 2-year degrees overlaps a
bell-curve distribution for 4-year degrees.

interesting statistic is that some technical 2 year programs
have higher starting incomes than many 4 year degree programs.
People who complete such a program can later take a 2+2
program to get a four year degree if they choose.<br>

James Peck]Yes, you would not likely get a job restoring
tractors without any experience. Yet Honda is willing to hire
people with no experience to maintain automobile manufacturing
equipment if they have an Associates degree in Electronics. An
ASET is somewhat vocational training. Whether a bicycle
training program would get you hired with no experience is
pushing it. I wonder what data they have supporting that
hiring criteria.<br>

As I understand it, the Japanese approach is to continuously
train, evaluate, and recognize employees skill sets over an
extended period of time.<br>

]Brian VanDragt] I just don't see bicycles needing to be taken
to a specialist with a fancy bicycle degree to get fixed.<br>
