Career Training or Traditional College – What is Best for You? July 21, 2021

If you already know what your passions and interests are, then a multi-disciplinary education might not be the best fit for you.  A big complaint among college students is that they have a load of course requirements that do not necessarily relate to their area of interest or career aspirations.  Career training eliminates a lot of the trivial coursework and helps to save money in the process.

Here are some key differences:

THE SALON PROFESSIONAL ACADEMY

• Costs less
• Focus on career preparedness
• Hands-on learning
• Small class sizes
• Shorter process
• Specific & relevant curriculum
• Taught by licensed professionals
• Real world brought into the classroom
• Tight-knit community
• Close mentorship opportunities

TRADITIONAL COLLEGE

• More expensive
• Focus on academics
• Most courses taught in lecture halls
• Large lecture halls
• 4 years + potential graduate school
• Broad, interdisciplinary education
• Taught by professors
• Internships
• Big social scene
• Potential for lab experience
