THE BUREAUCRACY BULLDOZER AT WORK:

Guest post by: Tracey Jones

Article Overview: Vocational Education has attracted a startling bureaucracy in recent decades. We are now heavily auditing our colleges and producing reports by the truckload. We’re getting many more diploma and certificate graduates for the same educational investment. That equation adds up to more graduates with less knowledge. The result, is shorter courses, poorer facilities and dissatisfied employers.

THE BUREAUCRACY BULLDOZER AT WORK:

What needs to be done?

Government should endorse education because it is good, not because it is prepared to run the gambit of bureaucrats.
Increase emphasis on quality education, decrease emphasis on accreditation. This means decrease paperwork and restrictions.
Audit less, teach more. Cap bureaucratic spending (incl. auditing) at 10% of what is spent on course delivery.
Reduce bureaucracy.
Teachers should be qualified and experienced in the discipline they deal with –and only then, given the the opportunity to educate in that particular area.
Bureaucrats/Auditors should be both qualified and experienced in relevant disciplines, before being able to make decisions on courses and requirements.
Embrace diverse, new and innovative approaches to education such as experiential learning, problem based learning, online & distance education etc.

Re: What exactly do you need to start a business Re: What exactly do you need to start a business - Starting a business takes many things. Like guts and brains. But what I find pays off the most in online busines is HARD WORK. There is no better alternative. The more energy you use to make your business successful, the better your chances of it being successful
