Post secondary education also known as tertiary education, is an educational program of choice taken after secondary education. It varies greatly from secondary education and is much broader. It allows a continued enhancement of skills and education through the studentâs course choice. It also helps in preparing the person when aiming for a future career.

Post secondary education, although optional, is always beneficial, regardless of the degree subject.
Post secondary education provides people with a wider view of the world. Those who choose to go to college more often than not meet a wide range of people and get exposed to a variety of cultures. Students get to extend their experiences and values and integrate these within themselves, leading to character formation. They also get to involve themselves in communities which lead to exposure in different kinds of social situations. The independence they experience then helps them on how to react or respond to these situations.
When applying for a career, employers usually look for and hire people who have taken up tertiary education since they are equipped with the skills and education needed for the career of choice. For them, having the basic skills and education mean less cost in terms of training. Those who have taken up post secondary education are also paid much more compared to those who have not. They are also said to gain more job satisfaction.
Products of tertiary education are also said to be great contributors to society. Not only do they earn more (and pay taxes more), they also produce more. Those who enter business courses would eventually put up their own businesses and establishments, while those who enter social sciences courses contribute through production and conduction of research. The personal knowledge they gain while taking up tertiary education also become their niche when getting involved with the society.
