By my assumptions, there are strong indications already that we are moving past an era where employers put educational qualifications at the fore front of their requirement for employment into certain positions, some employers now hold personal qualities such as skills possessed by the individual ahead of the school they went to and the degree they graduated with. First, I would like to ask, could this be a reflection of a failing educational system? My second question is that if you happen to be the employer here, which will you consider more, school or skills?
Both education and skills are necessary, but first a person has to be educated and then he has to be skilled. No one can learn skills without going to school, so first he must go to school, which means he must build an academic career. Then, if he is well-educated, he will definitely be skilled. Just as education is necessary in all aspects of human life, a skilled and educated person plays a huge role in the economic development of a country. Without practical knowledge, no matter how educated one is, he or she is of no use in the development of the country. Therefore, both school and skills are very necessary for the development of life.
