Thanks for your comment. A good combination of life experience and formal education is a great way for anyone to pursue a successful career. However, for a younger person, life experience must come with maturity. A good education can go a long way to help anyone gain quality experience. Also, the life experience shared by instructors and professors can expand students’ knowledge and skills as they obtain their degrees through traditional or non-traditional education.

High school, college, professional or vocational education, bachelor’s or master’s degree – you are expected to have at least one diploma of mentioned. The less degrees you have, the less are your chances to get a good job with nice wage. That is simple and understandable, but aren’t we overestimating the benefit and value of official education? Maybe we are unfair to those, who have less diplomas, but greater life experience?
What do you think – are we overvaluing education, or is it crucial, and life experience is no way better than university diploma? http://www.votetheday.com/society-18/education-degree-307
