What kind of qualification should I pursue?
Dennis Bonilla, the Executive Dean from the College of Information Systems and Technology at the University of Phoenix shared his ideas on why you should always pursue higher studies:
Different career paths will require diverse levels of education.
It is very important to recognize and align the best programmes to suit your ambition. Many jobs now require a minimum of a Bachelor's degree while others may ask for certificates related to specific skill sets.
Professionals working in an industry which does not require a Bachelor's degree should be able to include academic qualifications as many universities now offer skills certification in these fields and professional development courses.
You can build a career using only SPM results. Find out how here.
Professional certificates are a great option for those wanting to improve themselves within the industry. It is a good option for lifelong learners as employers love employees who are independent and skillful.
Pursuing a tertiary education is a huge responsibility, so make sure that you are ready to spend a lot of time, money and commitment.
