Contrary to popular belief, vocational colleges aren't just for studentswho couldn't get into 
university. Students attend vocational colleges fora number of reasons, including getting some 
practical skills or experiencebefore going to university. For many people it is a good two-year 
longalternative to longer higher education programmes. 
Whereas in universities the education concentrates more on theory andabstract knowledge, in 
vocational colleges the education usually prepareslearners for careers that are traditionally non-
academic. In other words, it isdirectly related to a specific occupation or vocation, and students 
developexpertise in a particular technique or learn some practical skills. 
Till the end of the twentieth century, vocational education focusedmore on specific trades, 
such as automobile mechanics or welding, andwas therefore associated with the activities of 
lower social classes. But thesituation has changed. Now vocational education exists in industries 
suchas retail, tourism, information technology and cosmetics.
