Vocational Education Training

Programs and Degrees

 

Vocational education and training prepares students in fields that are typically directly related to a specific trade, or vocation. This is in contrast to academic programs at a college or university where education is usually broader based, and where more time is spent on teaching the theory and concepts of a particular field. However in some cases, vocational education training can lead into a more advanced degree at a two- or four-year school. Also many students pursue a vocational education right out of high-school so that they can get work related skills to pursue immediate employment while they then attend a university.
 


Vocational education and training is typically done as a post-secondary educational path, and can span varying levels of educational requirements from a post-secondary certificate which can be earned in a matter of weeks, to a two- or four year degree. Vocational education programs are typically offered at community colleges and technical colleges, as well as some high schools, and other post secondary schools.

Typically vocational education programs are offered as a sequence of courses that are supplemented by work-based, hands-on experience in the field, such as through internships or apprenticeships. A vocational education can prepare you for a wide range of careers, although the careers most commonly associated with vocational education are typically trade and industrial careers such as auto mechanics, computer technicians, medical technicians, electronics technicians, or communications technicians.

The benefit of a vocational education for many is that it can provide a foundation of skills that will enable you to pursue jobs in your field as soon as you have completed. Vocational education is becoming more of a growing trend in education, and there are now vocational education programs in almost every industry.
