Why buy a diploma?

Type in any search engine «Buy diploma» - and you will fall many proposals from various companies that offer to purchase state diplomas. Starting from the certificate of secondary school and ending with «peel» Doctor of Science.

Diplomas are offered to any university, any profession, any year - from the Soviet era and ending with today. Proposals for all tastes and needs. Enough to leave a message or call the number listed - and a few days the coveted diploma is already in his pocket.

A logical question: who needs such profanity? In the end, the diploma - it is only a piece of cardboard, not more. But this is only one side of the issue. This «a piece of cardboard» is a symbol of higher education. But to get higher education - need to sweat.

Not so long ago in the turbulent 90 years of the last century, the diplomas were thrown in the distant boxes as unnecessary. Wave began capitalizing washed many graduates from their seats, and instead to deal with the core business, they had to retrain. Most went into commerce. Many - successfully. Some - very successfully. Somebody became a successful owner of a business. Someone - or middle-paid employee of a commercial structure. Diplomas peacefully gathered dust in the drawers.

The business of deal not only with graduates. In the 90 years, traded the whole country. Just a few months, power production has become a huge clothing market. Merchants were selling those who had higher educational qualifications, traded and those who have never been able to go to college. And successful business people become like those and others.

Now, commercial, flood waters have entered into certain limits. It has become more civilized. And the first thing that has changed - offer of employment. If you open the announcement of a job, it turns out that most employers want to have staff solely with higher education. And, often even does not matter which of the vacancy closes. Still required as accountants with higher education in a large commercial company, and «a girl on the phone» a small company - also with a higher education.

Many people do not have in time for the precious «peel», were outsiders. They began to play in the rat race - they did not have higher education. But it is perceived somewhat differently - in terms of the injured party. I think not that the problem is lack of higher education, and - in the absence of the diploma!

Little linguistic artifice, but as it changes the whole essence of the problem! Not education, and a diploma. No phenomenon, and its symbol ...

The most interesting is that the value of higher education in the university is not in the knowledge that pours student's head. Focus - in their systematization. As one very smart teacher: «Five years in high school are taught to use reference books».
books

And it is - the real truth. Because in principle - everyone who has a little bit of common sense, intelligence and specific abilities, it is able to independently read a textbook and learn some discipline. The program is designed for the university that prepared a list of disciplines required for mastery of a particular profession. Conducted not only theoretical but also practical exercises (sometimes - pretty pathetic, but still give some idea, and simply touch the device with his hands, in the event of a technical university - already a huge step forward). And - most important! - Consistently taught to determine the direction to search for new knowledge, be self-training program and a list of required courses.

Of course, such training is not in the forehead, but that is exactly what is - the cornerstone of higher education. Not for nothing is simple at first glance it as learning to use reference books, takes a minimum of five years.

This - the phenomenon of higher education. A symbol - this is the very institute «peel», which have lacked many people. And, considering that they possess the knowledge, all relevant chosen profession, people are buying the diplomas. In fact - forged documents. And use them for employment (the holders of diplomas can count on more promising towns), to move up the career ladder, etc. Even to get a job abroad.

In principle, many of these buyers diplomas really have the knowledge to perform a particular job. On their side, and yet large enough practical experience. But ... systematization, the ability to use reference books - that's what they lack.

Of course, the obvious question to ask or «paper» book or Internet search engine everyone can. In another case - a guarantee of the correctness of the language issue. And here benefit those with higher education now, and not just bought a diploma (albeit with great experience, etc.).

Incidentally, the above categories «thirsty crusts» - this is not all potential buyers of diplomas. In the arms of «documentary scam» get people who have the most genuine higher education, but lost the certificates for any reason, and without the possibility of their recovery. For example, those who received a diploma in Soviet times, after finishing high school in one of the fraternal republics. He turns out to be cheaper to pay for the «up» diploma manufactured «craftsmen», than take a long and arduous process of this recovery.

Another category of buyers - this is business, subject to legislative restrictions of activities in the absence of profile education. These sufferers who do not have time to get profile «peel», just have to apply for a fake. To be able to proceed.

There is absolutely harmless buyers of fake diplomas. These are people who for whatever reasons, were unable to enter or complete college. But very much want parents to be proud of. I do not have the strength to tell my parents that higher education has turned a shameful failure. Incidentally, this category usually buyers - seeking to comfort the parents - quite successful in life, people who are absolutely not hampered by the lack of higher education. But parents - the sacred, and bought fake «peel», to show their mom and dad: «Read, be proud, I - a graduate of ...».

Reading the sweet promises of distributors of fake diplomas, just dismayed. They promise all the benefits of peace only for «crust». They are called higher education - a tick in the questionnaire. And there is hope for one thing: the popularization of higher education. To the report finally to all - what real advantages does higher education (rather than its symbol - a diploma!), Is different than a specialist with a higher education simply by a competent specialist, without higher education.

But all this requires not only the cheerful stories about domestic institutions, but - modernization and modification of the education system itself. Hope still there ...
