Education remains the best

A question of whether getting a degree is still worth it in this era is one thing that almost everyone seems to wrestle with. With the rise of online courses, learning platforms, and countless ways to pick up a skill without stepping into any university, many people wonder if spending years in school is still necessary. The truth is degrees are still worth it even though the way we see and use them has changed a lot.

The reason for using degrees on the silver level is the structure and credibility they provide. In today's world, employers and organizations are flooded with applicants, although having a degree is one of the simplest ways to prove a person has gone through a structured form of learning. Many say that education is a scam, although it might seem so because some of the successful people we have in today's world are illiterate, for example, Peller.

But in all, there are certain career paths you can never achieve without a degree, like medicine, law, engineering, and teaching, especially in higher institutions. If you like using online learning classes, you can practice them. A skill might be king, but a degree often acts as the key that opens the gate.

One important point is that a degree is not just about academics, exposure, networking, and personal growth. University or college gives people the opportunity to meet others from different walks of life to debate, to collaborate on projects, and to sharpen social and communication skills. Peller might be successful, but he still lacks in many ways. He can't make a proper sentence, and there are places or events he can't attend.

His recent mockery of a master's degree holder might have made some give up on education and pursue money. I remember when I went for it and I happened to be seeing money; I didn't want to go back to school again. Thanks to a client that advised me to go back, but I should learn a skill or start a business and keep pushing it until I make it.

As a graduate, don't wait for anybody to advise you to get a skill. I will be lying if I say that degree is the only pathway to success in this, our present dispensation. I know of an engineer who taught himself coding and is successful today, content creators, and entrepreneurs that are graduates who have built empires. Also, schools need to evolve; schools focus on cramming theories instead of teaching practical skills that match today's economy.

Just this past few weeks I applied what I have learned in school outside. I was taught bookkeeping and how it helps in business and organization. It helped me, where I am working, to track my mother's business and its growth. It turns out well; it shows that school lessons don't always appear useful immediately, but later in life.

In conclusion, schools also need to partner more with industries so that students graduate not just with certificates, but with experiences that make them job-ready. Because many graduates are not job-ready but are looking for jobs. Graduates show they learn a skill, whether tech, catering, hairdressing, content creating, or shoemaking, to add to their knowledge.
