While many people go to university for academic study, more people should be encouraged to do vocational training because there is a lack of qualified workers such as electricians and plumbers. Do you agree or disagree?

Despite the popularity of universities, it is of the opinion that vocational training should be encouraged to help alleviate the shortage of skilled workers in the workforce. Personally, I hold a different perspective on

this

notion. On the one hand, it is obvious that not all people can pursue a higher

education

which focuses on academic

study

and research. In fact, it should be harmful to presume that everyone, regardless of how talented they are, has the same ability to go to

university

.

For example

, some people may not have academic abilities

such

as literacy and numeracy skills, but they may have a natural talent for practical skills like car fixing, driving and hairdressing. Under

such

circumstances, forcing them to

study

at

university

may hinder their personal growth because they may not catch up with the course's content and fall behind their peers.

This

is evident in a statistical report from the Vietnamese Ministry of

Education

which revealed that nearly 30% of students decided to quit their universities after studying for one or two years

due to

stress caused by the course's content.

Therefore

, vocational training can be another effective pathway of

education

, providing learners with the necessary practical skills which are useful for their future careers.

On the other hand

, it does not mean that the role of

university

education

can be underestimated.

Firstly

, ignoring theoretical knowledge can harm seriously a nation's sustainability and technological development. To be more specific, thanks to tons of research carried out by scientists who have spent years in academic

study

revolution has been taken everywhere, bringing numerous benefits for humans.

Secondly

, different from vocational training, academic courses contain a wide range of subjects, including literature, history, culture, foreign language and other specialized knowledge.

This

expertise not only broadens learners' horizons but

also

provides them with more job opportunities. In conclusion, the question of whether to go to

university

for academic

study

or attend vocational training is a matter of personal abilities, with valid arguments for both sides. Though these two approaches follow different pathways of

education

, they both contribute significantly to society.

While

academic

study

provides students with a foundation for research taking, vocational training equips the workforce with skilled workers

such

as electricians and plumbers.
