They get payed for the work, not the training (with some exceptions). Not being payed for training is a barrier for people who are not in a good financial situation.

If there are lot of potential people with willingness to train and a market to pay for trained people a market for training them with deferred loans etc. would be there?

I wonder why banks don’t offer loans for job training programs. Seems like it might work. Or maybe they do?
