Degree or Delivery - What is more important?

Smriti Irani had always made a lot more noise and garnered the attention of the people. First it was about the Star Plus popular serial, then the fight with Rahul Gandhi in Amethi and latest in the row is debate over her educational qualification.

The same case don’t repeats again and again, therefore people are out discussing, whether what is more important-Degree or Delivery?

Degree

• Degree is just not a piece of paper but an important learning part in every person's life. The learning from educational qualification cannot be ignored.

• Degree works as a parameter to shortlist the candidates for any responsible profile. Without degree the level of competition may rise extremely.

• The outer world is extremely competitive where you need to have all the required things that can work in your favor.

• Degree is the word that even holds a place ahead of delivery in the dictionary. The same thing stands true in the real life.

• People spend huge amount of time, efforts and money in getting the knowledge. The skills are always there deep within, but it is the degree that sharpens the skills.

• In some cases like architect, doctor, engineer there is a strong need of degree without which delivery is impossible.

Delivery

• There are many people who get a degree but still are working at low profiles or are roaming unemployed. So how degree is helping them?

• Degree is needed to get the results, but in the past people have proved that degree is not the most important thing required to get the success in life.

• Dhirubhai Ambani, Henry Ford, Bill Gates etc are the people who were drop outs but made it big in their lives without any professional degree.

• Technical expertise is required along with the business acumen to get the positive results that a degree cannot provide.

• The knowledge of local regulations, local market and how to create a niche in competitive environment makes a person successful.

Conclusion

There are many instances in the past where people have made it big without even getting the professional and advanced degrees. They had a purpose which they fulfilled through their hard work and innovation. Practical learning was still there. In any case, the importance of degree cannot be overshadowed by the success of few people. They are the exceptions who got the practical exposure by the harsh times. So, just saying that delivery can take place of degree is mockery of education.
