In today's job market it is far more important to have practical skills than theoretical knowledge, in the future, job applicants may not need any formal qualifications. do you agree or disagree?

Nowadays, having practical skills is valued over academic

knowledge

, which triggers projections for applicants to get rid of formal degrees in order to enter the workplace.

Although

why it is predicted that formal qualifications will become redundant in future workplaces.

Firstly

rather than background information.

Secondly

, with the advent of technology, individuals can search for whatever they desire and learn about a specific subject from various contents in the shortest amount of time.

This

means that people are not obliged to go to colleges or universities to get a degree, and they can rather learn about the subjects when encountering a real-world situation.

However

, the nature of certain jobs and innovations necessitates individuals to obtain a formal degree before entering the job market. First and foremost, the sensibility of the healthcare system demands a formal qualification. Being a doctor or a nurse means that

is directly dealing with people's lives, and a mistake caused by a lack of

knowledge

can bring about irreparable repercussions. Take Christopher Dunch

in neurosurgery caused 33 maimings, which ultimately contributed to his sentence.

Moreover

, learning theoretical

knowledge

leads to an innovation that can remedy a pressing issue in times of need.

One

staggering example is the usage of metformin, a well-known medicine for the treatment of diabetes, for the treatment of PCOS,

also

known as polycystic ovarian syndrome. Knowing the mechanism of action, pharmacists and doctors use
