Post-secondary education ranges from vocational/technical schools and community colleges to four-year universities. The more education you get, the more likely it is that you’ll be able to adapt to a wide variety of jobs and careers. Every bit of education you get after high school increases the chances you’ll earn good pay. Most college graduates earn a lot more money during their working years than people who stop their education at high school. Education beyond high school gives you a lot of other benefits, including meeting new people, taking part in new opportunities to explore your interests and experiencing success.
