TIL that the US doesn't have apprenticeships. We have them over here in Australia, for the usual trades. But we also regulate a lot of those things - we're not allowed to handle our own electrical work if we're not trade qualified.

How does it work in the US, if a kid wants to become, say, a plumber?

We do have apprenticeships! For ex: https://www.apprenticeship.gov/apprenticeship-occupations/listings?occupationCode=51-4121.00
