Why is a college degree or certification important whether you know what you are doing or not?
I have noticed that having a college or university degree makes such a big difference when looking for work. Some place won’t even call you in for an interview if you don’t have a degree etc.
But, still I really get the impression that some people have these degrees or certifications and are actually resting on their laurels while out of touch with what they are doing in some ways.
And what if you develop expertise in an area that is rarely given as a major in colleges yet still applicable to a variety of different career paths?
Looks like we have testimonials from both sides of the fences. Thanks to all!
I personally have never finished college training or certication. I did get 2nd initiation in Bhakti Yoga. Otherwise, I am self-taught.
I feel I have some learning disability for different reasons. That is another area of study.
There are some schools offering credits for life experience. But, their offers seem a little difficult and I personally believe much more work could be done to acknowledge life experience.

Thomas Elva Edison did all without university degree. Others can also do. You can do it!! Good Luck. But every organisation has its own criteria. You can be self-employed.

sadly enough, the degree often tells employers how trainable potential employees are. it often indicates dedication, willingness to learn, and how well they adapt to stressful situations. granted their majors and extracurricular activities are considered too, but much of the time, degrees are used to deduce abstractions as well. what they’ve studied indicates what they already know how to do and if there are internships it allows employers to tell exactly how much extra training the potential employee will require…the less training required the better, it seems.

For seeking applicants who have degree in few months or degree in few months or year degree.
For seeking applicants who will succeed rather than from the training and discipline employers wants employees who will be acquired onthejob rather than those who.
