If you say so. Ironically, computers were the classic type of
learn-as-you-go work, though not as much now. Just about
every type of construction effectively works that way. You
don't take carpentry classes. You start as a helper. Same for
aliminum siding, roofing, sheetrock, etc. Electricians do the
formal version even where their aren't unions.

Lawyers, engineers, brokers, etc. start in junior positions.
Management in general is trains & grooms as you go. It's
a very common model, whether it is a formal apprenticeship
or not.
