Would you like to study at a vocational education centre, and in what subject?
Tuesday, March 27
I have heard that those courses are very effective and give young people an opportunity to enhance their skills and knowledge in other directions, apart from their profession. I am working now but if I see I need to change my profession I will attend those courses with pleasure.

In my opinion, those centres are successful as many people [are given] an opportunity to learn something new and then find a job. For example, I would be happy if I attended a course where the students learn knitting and working with felt. It is very popular job in Tbilisi and as far as I know many people like to buy handmade accessories made locally.

I do not know yet but I do not exclude [the possibility of] becoming a student at a vocational education centre. However, I still think that a university degree is more useful and important than those [from a centre].

With great pleasure, however, currently I have no time for this. If I had, I would try the tourism sector.

I think that higher education is more appreciated in the government and attitudes towards those with higher education is different. For this reason I would prefer studying at a university.
Nana, Student, 20
To tell you the truth, I have no real wish to continue studying at a vocational centre. Currently, I am studying for a Master's degree and my next step will probably be a doctorate.
