Switzerland is lacking teachers and production seems far from able to satisfy demand. 6 Cantons (states) are introducing a new scheme allowing lateral entrants to become teachers. Training takes 9 to 18 months (unpaid). The details of the concept are supposed to be released this autumn and production should start in a year. They are especially looking for engineers. I might be a bit too old though.
Nevertheless, I think I have to keep an eye on this. I'm a bit bored of the engineering trade and could use a fresh start. Why not working on the future of our society?

Sounds like an interesting, even exciting, option, worth thinking about.
BTW, that was quite a video a couple of days ago.
We have a program like that at my company. They'll pay for you to take classes, give you leave, and when its said and done, give up $10,000+ toward your training to become a K-12 teacher.
