THE VALUE OF CAREER TRAINING
January 20, 2003
Dayton, OH - Many people feel that their best option
after high school is to go to a four-year college or university and earn a bachelor's degree. While this isn't a bad plan, there may be a better option. A career
training school can offer many benefits that a four-year school can't, and is often a more logical choice.
When someone graduates from a four-year school, they get a degree and are ready to look
for a job. The only problem is that they don't know where to start, their college doesn't offer job placement. They don't have any of the practical skills that most
employers are looking for, and they were never prepared for what a career was going to be like.
How can a career training school help you get around this? There are many different ways
that a career training school, or technical college, will better prepare you for the real world.
Practical Classes - The reason that technical schools can offer a shorter degree
program is because they don't require you to take general education classes, the ones where you learn the same things that you did in high school.
Career Programs - Career colleges offer you classes where you actually learn how
to perform a job, instead of just giving you a general idea. They offer hands-on experience, the kind that employers look for.
Job Placement - A career college will make sure that you're prepared to get a job
and keep that job when you graduate. They can give you the skills to step into your career immediately, without much on-the-job training.
Variety - Career colleges offer degrees in a wide variety of programs, many of
which aren't even available at four-year schools.
Personalized Programs - A career training school will custom-build a career
program for you. They will work with your schedule, help you with employment, help you with financial aid; some will even assist you in finding childcare if you need
it.
Time - Career colleges can help you earn a degree in a significantly shorter
period of time so that you spend less time in the classroom, and more time getting a job and earning a salary.
Career colleges are geared toward making sure that you succeed in the "real world." Their
main goal is to get you trained and into a good-paying job. The degrees are practical, and they will ensure that you have all of the skills you need to succeed in the
job that you want to do. If the thought of going to a four-year college, only to graduate and be unsure what you're going to do next scares you, consider a more
practical alternative; consider a career college. |
