Why education is significant in our lives?

The significance of education in our lives as people can never be overemphasized and the reason is that education helps to build a nation, a community, and a person. Without education, there is not much growth that will be seen within a person a community, or even a country.

So this is the reason why education is significant in our lives as people. Everyone needs to be educated for the world to be a better place because if all are educated we can then have people in various fields that will carry out the task available at any point and time.

With education, our lives will be better as we will be able to create new opportunities and earnings for ourselves and our families making life more easier for all. The Steemit platform is a big example of those educated, you will agree with me that only educated people make it more on Steemit because they provide articles of great value thereby getting selected to receive upvotes.

How do you classify education? Describe.

I classify education as a means by which someone gains knowledge that he or she will use to make a living for himself or herself. This means that education has to do with acquiring knowledge and putting into use the knowledge acquired.

You are only educated when you put into use what you have learned. You can apply your knowledge in different ways such as sharing it with others, making something for others by the knowledge gotten and earning money, and many other means.

Do you believe besides institutional education, we have a lot of other educations that are equally essential? Justify your answer.

Institutional education is very important but aside from institutional education other forms of education are also very important and that is why as a child you are first taught at your home as you are growing before you can start school.

Also when you have grown, it's not everyone has the privilege of going to a higher institution and for that reason, we see some people who learn a trade and then start making a living from there. This means this knowledge is also essential to keep them going as they can use it to earn a living.

So to me aside from the institutional knowledge other knowledge gotten outside is also essential because they say No knowledge is a waste, so every knowledge gotten is highly essential.

According to you, which education carries more value in life? Describe.

The education that carries more value in life is institutional education and the reason I say so is that you will be given a certification and you will be licensed to practice. In our world today, before you get employed in most sectors you will have to present your certification from a renowned institution and it's only in the institution's education that you can be taught things like medicine and other professions like law.

So these are the most needed in life and since you went to school to acquire them, then you will be highly regarded because you spent years or more before you got the said certificate. This is the main reason why I believe that an institution education certificate is more valid than other education.

Here I will want to invite a few ladies to also join the contest and share their entries as well. I invite @dave-hanny, @josepha and @drhira.
