    Vocational Education is a type of education that trains students for particular professions or skill sets. It is different from academic education in the traditional sense which emphasizes theoretical knowledge.
    Vocational education is more practical and hands-on, providing students with the knowledge and skills necessary to excel in their chosen sectors, including management, teaching and training, research and people handling.
    Some of the examples of vocational education courses:
    • Automotive engineering
    • Carpentry
    • Electrical engineering
    • Hairdressing
    • Hospitality
    • Information technology
