  1. The Reason Skill Cannot Be Replaced For Higher Education

The media postures the pundits and the policy makers about the debacle of U.S universities and colleges to prepare the people for the 21st workplace is misguided or ill-formed. One of the media’s important narratives is that the workers must be produced in more numbers now which in short refers to programs that are postsecondary certification. The focus is now mainly laid on vocational skills in contrast to characteristics that are relatively liberal education that is considered useless which includes the knowledge of cultures, world history and other things such as crafting and many more.

To identify the competent workers, the works of the employers are made easy by assigning a litany badge or certificates and many other similar things that prove they are proficient. 

In another narrative, it was framed by the CEOs and managers chorusing job applicants and baccalaureate and associate degrees cannot write paragraphs that are coherent which clearly explains the complex problems or work with other people who are different from themselves. This is expected after many years of post-secondary study, not weeks or months. Also, at the same time, the leaders expect them to be capable to handle and solve future problems that have not been invented or discovered yet while being able to complete today’s work. Is there any certificate or badge for such skills yet? 

The programs for short term skills-based vocational class are important and also it suits many other people. But it is not being accepted in the 21st-century workplace.

We need leaders of business to speak and raise voice in support of more and broad educational systems. The resource for education topic must be given sufficient emphasis. The needs of the country can be kept as secondary while concentrating on the individual growth and development. This, in turn, will help the country at the end as well.
