Best Non-formal Training Alternatives for Formal Education

In this practical world, getting a degree sometimes is thought as a waste of time and thus, after graduating from High School, some just pursue business and other activities that could sustain them financially rather than looking for a university to enroll for an undergraduate degree. However, since this world is nonetheless practical, there are also alternative non formal training available to give enriching knowledge on how to perform well in your chosen field of business or any nature of venture you took without having a proper education in the university.

Here are some tips on how to get information on how to be knowledgeable even without going to the university and earning a degree:

Internet Free Courseware

Internet opens all the portals of big libraries of the biggest universities not just from your host country but mind you, around the world. Internet also provides this free courseware that gives you modules to complete and assessments afterwards like Alison to name one. They provide a free yet very comprehensive instructions and details of the things that you need to learn in order to perform well in your ventures.

Attending Seminars

There are LGUs and NGOs that offer livelihood seminars or other supplementary seminars that you might find fit for your ventures. This is actually nice because you will also have the opportunity to expand your network and establish rapport to your prospective partners in the future. It is just like hitting two birds in one stone: you build your network and you gain partners – you also get a bonus of learning something new from the training.

Read Life and Business Books

Although in the industry, there are so many fields and concentrations but they will all go down into two major things: life and business. So, reading life books and business books is actually very beneficial and could help you match life into business and business into life. It will also broaden your imagination and perspective towards certain things in life like making tough decisions and taking a leap of faith which I believe are not taught at school. So, this is a mind and physical training at the same time that will test your vulnerability and resistance but most importantly, your strength.

Travel

Travel doesn’t sound like training but actually it is. When you travel, you make everything that you have learned mobile. It will test your strategies if you have learned things correctly or not. It is like emerging yourself to the very business and transactions that you have made. So, travel to verify and confirm. After all, you can always go home if you lost your way.

Do your own business

Actually, the best training that you will have is just doing your own business. I am talking about its technicality and irony. Sometimes, those who focus more on what they do are most likely the ones who have enriched their knowledge and business first. They succeed, in short. While those who keep an eye to the business of others are most likely to lose control to their own business and worse, their own life.

This article will let you realize that your educational attainment could be of help to make you a successful person but it will never be the sole parameter to be successful. One might be highly educated and yet lacks the determination to move ahead, he will surely fail. On the other hand, one might not have a degree but has all the hopes and determination, he will most likely find a way to better himself in the most amazing way, he will surely succeed!
