Some people believe that professionals, such as doctors and engineers, should be required to work in the country where they did their training. Others believe they should be free to working another country if they wish. Discuss both these views and give your opinion.

Some say

experts

such

as doctors and engineers, should be required to practice their profession in the country where they are trained while others agree they should have the freedom to choose other nations where they can work. I believe

professionals

should have the liberty of choice of workplace.

This

essay will discuss both views.

To begin

with,

experts

should stay back in their country in other to help improve its economy. The economic growth of a nation largely depends on the skills and expertise of these

professionals

. Most

experts

,

for instance

, trained in their country at a subsidized rate or with scholarships that were granted by the government.

This

is usually done to encourage them to stay back after they become qualified and use the knowledge gained to improve the economic status of the nation.

Therefore

, it is needed that these

professionals

stay where they were trained.

However

, skilled workers should be allowed to travel to other places abroad so as to improve their experience.

Experts

have jobs that require advanced education and training which may not be readily available where they were trained.

For example

, in 2021 about a thousand physicians in Nigeria wrote the United States Of America licensing board examination in order to go for residency training and gain professional experience.

This

will enable them to be more qualified, make career progression and improve their earning power.

Thus

, it is important that

experts

are given the opportunity to practice their profession anywhere they choose. In summary,

professionals

should be allowed to decide if they will work in the nation they trained to help advance the economy or travel abroad for career advancement. In my opinion,

experts

should be free to travel anywhere to practice.
