The problem of education has always aroused heated debates. Some people are convinced that education is the most priceless thing you can posses. However the others believe that experience is more valuable than education. I suppose that education is very important. Firstly, it is difficult to get well-paid job without education. Secondly, education helps cultivate skills and provides mental, moral and aes­thetic development. Thirdly, you couldn't get job that requires special experience that could be gained only during educational process - doctor, engineer etc. Some opponents might stick to the point that people don't need to be educated nowadays. They suggest that everyone could get information from the internet or attend some courses they need online. Moreover, they claim that there are a lot of web or game developers who work successfully without education. Nevertheless I do not support the above mentioned ideas. One should take into account the fact that self-education is not such effective as education in school or university. Besides, even in developers' career you could get top managers positions only if you have higher education. All in all, i am convinced that everybody must realize the importance of education as it is the guarantee of the development and well-being of our society.
