I chose to pick Vocational Schools because a lot of my friends went to this type of schooling and really enjoyed it, so i wanted to explore it and learn more about it. I also wanted to see if it benefits everyone or only certain people. So hopefully after doing some research on it, I will be able to answer these questions.
Its stated that a vocational school help students prepare to get a job by training them for specific trades and technical employment. Most vocational schools and trade schools do not teach liberal arts subjects (philosophy, humanities, etc.) Instead, vocational and trade schools prepare students for a career in a specific vocation or trade, such as fashion design, cooking, electronics, automotive technology, and aircraft maintenance.Most vocational schools and trade schools admit students who have successfully earned their high school diploma or GED. The credentials a student is awarded upon graduation include an associate degree, bachelor degree, a diploma, and specialized certificates. These degrees, diplomas and certificates are earned after completing courses in the classroom or lab and field work. The purpose of attending a vocational school or trade school is to obtain practical training and skills which you can utilize in the real world.
It is still extremely important to fully research any vocational school or trade school you are considering enrolling in. Many can be deceiving. I feel that if you know what you wan
t to do with your life (whether it be a chef, hair dresser, or electrician) than this type of schooling would benefit you greatly! Also if you're not planning on going off to college, this would help you more for your future than a regular school would. As I've stated before it gives you on the job training and specific skills that you would need for your future career. There are different types of vocational schooling (high school and college). Both offering skills specifically for a particular trade. However, usually a high school vocational school, you are mandated to take basic school subjects (such math, science, English). You would do basic subjects one week and then the next week do your trade training. However, in college you only focus on your trade, nothing else. You do not need to take any of the basic subjects that most other colleges would require you to do.
