Certification For All

in #life5 years ago

I've never really been a fan of school or schooling, but it's impossible to take that out and today's world. There's a certificate for almost everything today. Having just experience is certainly enough this days. In some parts, having a certificate without experience gets you a job easier than having experience without a certificate.

My friend who's been driving since 2011 had an issue with his car, so needed a new car to drive. We heard someone has bought a number of vehicles, looking for drivers to drive for him, so he pays them monthly. My friend decided to contact them and express his interest.

He called and was told to submit his CV and certificates for consideration. He told him he doesn't have a certificate since he's a high school drop out, but he mentioned that he's been driving for years, and that in his previous job, he was driving an uber. That seemed to make no difference.

It seems you are supposed to have a certificate for everything you want to do now. Unless of course you plan on starting your own business. I don't know if it's just in Ghana or everywhere else in the world, but all menial jobs this days require some form of certification.

Whatever it is that you are good at, it's best to get certified now. Having just experience and know how is no longer enough. You need to be certified, even before your experience is sought. Don't waste time, get certified now.
