Tertiary Vocational Education – Bachelors Education With a Difference
Every year thousands of students all over the country complete their schooling, and apply for admissions in colleges and universities for further studies. While the sciences, law, accountancy, banking etc are the popular picks, there is a small but fast growing number who are opting for universities that offer a formal training and education in creative vocational courses like music, dance, dramatics, computers, web designing etc.
The syllabus of these courses is designed with the view to not only provide the theoretical knowledge, but hands-on training and practical know-how in the chosen field; in order to expose the students, and better prepare them for their chosen careers. While the traditional courses follow the semester and examinations system, with practical training and apprenticeship being offered in very few subjects, the creative vocational courses aim at revamping the educational system and pedagogies altogether.
With the growing demand for students who are not just textbook learners or scholars, but are well prepared to meet the dynamic demands of the global workforce in fields like entertainment, IT, travel and tourism, performing arts etc, the need to shift the focus from just the classroom and textbooks has been strongly felt. The teaching methods in vocational courses are very comprehensive and better suited to the creative needs of the students.
