Skill is very important in the life of every
citizen. The reason why many technicians earns more than some university
graduates is because the technicians acquired more of skills than the theories
the graduates were feed with when they were in universities. It can take you to
places you do not expect you will ever find yourself. Skill acquisition is the
ability to be trained on a particular task or function and become expert in it.
It is a pity that there is ‘huge parading’ of unemployment in many
parts of the world today.

The truth remain that the major causes of the
unemployment among these vibrant youths is lack of skill to
backup what they learnt from their institutions. When these graduates were
still in school, they did not border to learn at least one single skill, maybe
that which is related in computer card designing, typing, plumbing, electric
maintenance and others. If they have learnt any skill at all, the rate of
unemployment will reduce among them. Instead of learning any single skill
during their holidays when they were still student, they were busy watching
various “species” of videos in their individual homes, moving from one joint to
another, partying from one town to another, and changing from one girl or guy
to another.

Self-employment: A skill acquired man is a
self-employed man. Many successful businessmen and woman whose names are heard
in many parts of the world are self-employed. A self employed person can never
go hungry because the skill he acquired provides food for him on daily basis.
But one who lacks skill acquisition will find it difficult to be self employed
because he has nothing to offer. In that case, they do not have the time to
answer ‘sir’ to anybody. They are self-employed due to the technical skill they
acquired sometime ago. They are hired by many companies on daily basis because
the skills they acquired keep them going. Whenever they feel like staying in
their home and rest they do so without being questioned by any higher
authority. They are simply boss of their own.

Employment generation: Many
governments are still finding it difficult to provide jobs for the citizens
because the citizens are lacking important skills they need. There will be a
lot of jobs generated for the citizens of every country if the citizens are
well equipped with skills. This is why it is necessary for government to
organize skill acquisition programme for the masses as this will go a long way
in providing jobs for others. Someone who is well equipped on electronics
repair can train his fellow citizens. When these citizens ‘mature’ in such
field, they start earning from the skill they acquired from their master. This
is how the newly trained in that field will train other persons, and employment
generation keeps on growing in such circle. Likewise those who have good skills
in businesses, they make good money on their businesses and generate employment
for others by employing other to assist him in his business.

Effective Function:
Organizations that employ skilful workers to assist in their organizational
duties lose nothing at all because there will be always effective functions
performed by the employee. This is because the employee has acquired necessary
skills needed for him to perform the work as desired by the organization. The
knowledge he gained from the training on that specific job makes him to do the
organization’s works as desired by the management of the organization. There is
much difference between studying a particular course in the university or
college and going for training on that course the person studied. Training on
that course gives the fellow an insight on how to pilot the function whenever
he is called. With skill acquisition combined with the education attainted by a
person, effective function is offered to the company he works or is going to
work with.

Crime reduction: Skill acquisition reduces the
crime rate in many nations. People begin to think on many dirty activities they
will do to make money when they do not have anything to call job of their own.
But, with acquired skill by an individual, he works and makes money from his
acquired skill. This will make him to feel comfortable in life and do not
disturb his or herself life in any way. Nations are advice to organize skill
acquisition programmes for her citizens to experience low crime practices by
her citizens. Instead of engaging in crime, the money acquired by the citizens
from empowerment through skill acquisition can be used to promote peace in such
nations. Also, the skill acquired by the citizens who were indulging in crime
before can be used to convert those who are still partakers in such bad
practice. They can go after their old bad friends and teach them the new skills
they acquired thereby converting them to good.
