What do you think about trade/vocational schools?

I personally like the idea of them but I feel like recently there has been such a push for them but its without the support they need to gain the prestige that degrees ones had. My problem with pushing trade schools specifically is a lot of them are worthless. Say what you will about college there is opportunity to get a degree that is worth something.

A lot of trade schools will teach you very basic things that will be very difficult to get a job with afterwards. If youre lucky they will look good on a resume. There are programs that do good work and will get you a job if you do your part but there are a lot of programs especially ones geared towards high school that provide a lot of fluff. Stuff whered youd be lucky to find something as far as work goes. Now that may not be the main focus of those programs but I do think they can be disingenuous. The programs geared towards adults can be super damaging especially if they are counting on it as an adult going back to school can be a very big and hard fought thing to do.

Curious what others think. Am I completely off base? This is all based on my experience and experiences from friends. Thankfully we all landed on our feet but there was a bit of struggle thanks to over promised programs.
