Long Speech on Vocational Education is The Need of The Hour
Good Morning everyone, respected Principal, Teachers, and my dear friends, I am glad that I have an opportunity to speak on this important topic of Vocational Education. Education is an important part of life to grow in every aspect as individuals. Since colonial India, the education system hasn’t changed much.
The focus on academic education and the competitiveness of it is helpful to some degree but not all the way through. We are at a stage where we have to decide what we will choose our career to be. And for the same purpose, it is vital that we explore more options depending on what we are good at. And the study which trains us to be better professionals is called vocational training or vocational education. With the world coming close and becoming a small place, the opportunities are only rising. Vocational education trains us in a specific skill and this experience is directly linked to a career in future.
Earlier this training in a required skill was given prior to the interview with an instructor. Now there are courses offered for skill training in every career field. Like banking, marketing, civil engineering, fashion design, beauty services, library and information sciences, logistic management, travel and tourism etc.
These courses are also available in all online formats. And with the institutions being shut due to the recent lockdown, these online courses are gaining popularity.
Vocational education focuses on the non-academic aspects of training. Such training is more useful because there are practical programs designed to help the students be accustomed to a professional set up and be comfortable working in such a design.
There are two forms of vocational training, formal training that is given in form of courses that is for 3-4 years and are structured as degrees or diplomas. This training programme also entails certificates from reputed sources. And after the completion of course placement offers are made avail. The informal training or non-formal one is acquired from a hereditary source, due to the availability of the option of family businesses.
This is a great way for beginners to gain insight into their chosen careers. It also gives them an opportunity to interact with their field's professionals and tycoons. The institutions providing such courses also give the students an interning period. That is, for the internship programme they can choose to interview for the company they are interested in working with. The placements offers are also excellent in reputed companies with higher packages. This gives the students a chance to be independent and financially secure.
Vocational education is the need of the hour because the practical learning experience boosts confidence, generates employability, and better professionals. All this is leading to an increase in the economy of our country.
Thank you.
