Vocational is best

Vocational qualifications are best, according to employers who took part in a survey by City and Guilds. Its report, The Skills Economy, said half of the 1,200 employers surveyed in 26 industries valued vocationally- qualified staff more highly than graduates without vocational qualifications, because they had the experience and skills to contribute from day one. Nine out of 10 employers also said staff with VQs were vital for their business success.
