I agree. I think the apprenticeship model would work far better for programming than the lecture/assignment/exam model. Solving real world problems and learning on the job under the eye of a mentor would be invaluable.
The person/company offering the apprenticeship would get cheap labour for a few years in return for helping the young apprentice learn everything they need.
