The Value of Post High School Education

The Value of Post High School Education

Have you ever looked at another person on the street, whether it is in their work suit or nice car, and wondered what are they doing that put them in that position of status. In many cases, it comes down to qualifications and credentials.

On the job experience is one of the great things that staffing agencies like Elite Staffing Solutions provide. Experience is one of the most valuable assets a prospect for a position can have, but how does one get this initial experience?

There are several ways to get the hands-on training and practice one needs to succeed in a given field. In many cases, an employee can skip working up from the complete bottom by arriving at a new position with relevant certifications and degrees.

I have heard many people make statements like “Why would I get a college degree, I can get the work done without it.” In many cases that may be true, but a prospect with a degree shows a different element of dedication and capabilities. A degree or certification not only demonstrates knowledge of a subject, it also shows that a potential employee is dedicated to their path, can see tasks through, and is smart enough to achieve the certification or degree. In many cases, the degree, diploma, or certification can make the difference between a good interview and an interview that results in a new job.

I’m not saying that everyone needs to go to college or vocational school. In some cases it could cost more time and money than its worth, but in other cases it can be the reason you were chosen over the next candidate with more experience.

So what do I actually want you to take away from this article? My hope is that job seekers take a deep look at what they want to do now and where they would like to be in 1,3, and 5-years. Then do some research and find the most efficient and cost-effective way to achieve your goals in 1,3, and 5-years. Maybe certifications or degrees will help move you forward. Maybe putting your head down, working hard and dependably will get you where you want to go without a certification. Whatever conclusion you come to, I encourage you to set a goal, figure out the best way to get there, and refuse to give up.
