Nowadays，most people learn academic study in university, but others think we should encourage to learn vocational skills more, do you agree or disagree?
It is known that the primary aim of universities is to teach academic subjects.
However
, some people think that universities should also
teach vocational skills
considering how important are those skills
to adult life
. In my opinion, vocational skills
should be mandatory throughout the course and this
essay will present arguments to support my thought.
I believe that vocational skills
are as important as academic studies. First
, some abilities are extremely important for life
, such
as communication and working in a team. Therefore
, graduates should be taught about it in order to improve their relationships. Second
, universities should prepare the graduates for life
and vocational skills
are necessary to succeed. For example
, the majority of well-paid jobs requires these skills
, such
as CEOs or managers.
Furthermore
, the lack of vocational skills
makes the graduates struggle to enter the job market. This
is because those skills
are highly desirable in the labour market. Even if a student has a great understanding of academic topics, he will struggle to compete in the job market without vocational abilities. Finally
, although
some people argue that those skills
could not be taught, I believe that is
completely possible to develop it, and the university is the right place to help students to improve their vocational skills
.
To sum up, I believe the academy should teach both academic matters and vocational skills
. Those abilities are extremely helpful and will help students later in life
. I suggest that students ask their tutors to add those teachings in the curriculum.Submitted by samirzakur on
