Technical Education and General Education
Education
is the backbone of a nation. Education enlightens a person. In this respect,
both technical education and general education play significant roles in the
development of the nation. General education usually makes a man highly
educated. But this type of education often fails to establish a man in his life
because it does not make a person specialized. As a result, a number of highly
educated persons remain unemployed. They become the burden of the country as
well as the nation. On the other hand, a man who has technical education, can
somehow manage a job. A country, like Bangladesh, needs devoted workers which
only technical education may provide. It ensures getting a job in the
respective fields. Technical education should be compulsory for all. Skilled
persons are very important. We should bear in mind that there is no alternative
to production and this production is possible for the sake of skilled persons.
A skilled worker is preferable to a highly educated unemployed person. Both
types of education are welcome but they should be distinguished if the question
of reality and pragmatic value arises.
