Our society has developed a certain tradition: we steadily believe that have after school to go to high school. After all, there are those who want much from life (the words of my teacher). But there is a reverse process. Thanks to the Internet, is becoming more and more information about the gap year, the professions that do not require higher education, emphasized information on the importance of self-education.
Consequently, this tradition is gradually disintegrating.
My grandmother told me that during her studies (60-e years of the last century), it was important not where you learn, and how they work. She worked as a chief accountant with 21 years studying at the evening Department of the University, because demanded by the profession. So did many. But the massive importance of higher education was not.
But during his studies, my mom (early 90s), it was considered necessary to study at University, if anything know to not divide in this world.
Now I often hear from teachers and parents that you need to go to the UNIVERSITY that without higher education you will not take. And my classmates are EN masse going to College, not to pass the Exam.
Why am I writing this? And the fact that there are indeed professions that require higher education, and there are those where you need the highest. All professions are equally important, equally necessary and useful. Just to define their profession is very difficult! And there is such confusion about colleges and Universities.
