What’s the difference between the three choices?
Here are some facts:
All schools can provide you with a quality education – it depends on your choice of what kind of vocation (skill training) or professional career you prefer.
No one situation fits all. Let’s define them further:
Technical (Trade) schools are designed to provide vocational education, or technical skills and are distinguished from four-year colleges by their focus on job-specific training to students who typically seek one of the skilled trades.
2-Year and 4-Year colleges and universities provide academic training for students pursuing careers in professional disciplines that offer associate (2-year), bachelor and graduate programs (4+ years) leading to master’s or doctoral degrees. Universities are generally larger than colleges and offer a wider range of courses and can be made up of multiple schools or colleges.
Until recently, many schools largely adhere to this format but the focus on vocational of other trade schools began to shift in the 1990s toward a curriculum that offers academic as well as technical skills to their students.
