大學教育與職業技術教育的最大區別在于理論課程的學習,所謂的公共課。大一大二的這些理論課程為之后的專業課提供了理論基礎,令學生更好的理解專業知識。理論課程的一大特點是相對穩定,不像專業知識更新那么快。另外,這些課程還鍛煉和培養學生的思考能力和方法。上面這些素質使學生具備持續學習的能力,這在快速變化的今天至關重要。無論科學技術如何變化,學習能力使一個人能夠永遠跟上時代的步伐。
社會對勞動力的需求是多層次的。當大家蜂擁進入大學的時候,社會上技術工人變得緊缺,人才市場變得不平衡。于是技術工人就業比以前更容易,工資也比以前高。另外,工作早意味著早掙錢和更豐富的工作和社會經驗。這些都是雇主看重的素質,因為雇主可以節省培訓的費用,同時還可以得到更高的工作效率。

Most people would favor higher education, with some undeniable arguments. Firstly university students are equipped with both practical and theoretical knowledge and skills which areconsidered to better prepare them for their future career. The reason is that degree holders tend to see things in a bigger picture due to the systematic thinking trained in theoretical subjectswhich are basically what differentiates higher education from vocational one. Theory learning also gives university students a competitive edge in adapting to the rapid technological advancein modern world. This flexibility and thinking abilities may explain why undergraduates are generally better paid at work. It seems that a decent academic qualification can guarantee a decent job.

However, this does not mean (that) tertiary education is the only way to a successful career. Occupational education is believed to better satisfy the variety of needs in a society. When most people choose to be professionals, leaving fewer to be car mechanics or builders, technical workers are in increasing demand. As a result, they are now paid well, in some cases even better than a professional. In addition, starting working early means accumulated working and social experience, which are highly valued by many employers who would expect cost saving of job training, effective communication and high working efficiency. Other qualities possessed by a skilled worker such as a mature manner to deal with complex issues can mainly be achieved in adynamic working condition. (賓語從句+被動句+時間從句+非謂語+動名詞+定語從句)
My own opinion is that in any society there is demand for workers at different levels from professional to technical to non-skilled, and therefore anyone can find his or her position. In other words, either going to university or attending a vocational college can be a wise choicedepending on one’s interest or personal traits. Only when one is doing a job he or she has passion for, can he or she achieve the best performance. As an old Chinese saying goes, ‘every profession produces its own topmost master’.
