: How much Education is required before an individual is considered for a position?
Working Adults are advancing their careers. (If they are working, why would they need more education)? Since 1946 we have provided hundreds of thousands of people with practical real world education, aimed at advancing their careers. That is the message I received. Yet no-one in this area is working. So how much education is required before an individual is considered for a position?

Anywhere from an 5th grade education up to a doctorate degree. The amount of education depends on what position you are referring to. Someone working on an assembly line in a factory does not need as much education as a heart surgeon does.

Well there are several positions that don’t require higher education but many of these jobs tend to go to people in the workforce who do. In this bad economy you will have several people seeking the same position. So you would have to ask yourself, who is the right person to hire? A lot of the time when comparing resumes you will find someone who is overqualified for the job usually being a stronger candidate.

I am a collector of college degrees in various fields, but education is only a piece of the puzzle when being considered for a profession. In addition, you need to have work experience. Many people with limited education or vocational education make very good money and are happy in their professions.
