The Mission
Based in Nashville, Tennessee, Alyn Vaughn launched in 2017 to broaden the narrative around higher education.
Through student apprenticeships, young adults learn skills and business acumen without the burden of college debt. On-the-job training provides pivotal 21st-century skills such as critical thinking and creative problem-solving.
The pervasive storyline in this country is that attending college is the only path to success. For some this is true, but not for all. With college tuition rates at an all-time high, the need for alternative opportunities has never been greater.
Alyn Vaughn is working to shift this narrative so that vocational school and apprenticeships are embraced as equally esteemed educational paths. For a high school student less inclined to attend college or vocational school, an apprenticeship could be the difference between poverty and realized potential.
