Education

 

Throughout my entire life, I have always heard that KNOWLEDGE IS POWER...

But how does KNOWLEGE relate to EDUCATION?

Does KNOWLEGE = EDUCATION?

It is true that the education that you learn in high school and how well you learn it, gets you into higher education.  The more you know the better high education school you can enter.

What happens after college?

During my 45-year career, NOT ONE EMPLOYER looked at the grades that I earned in college - all they wanted was a copy of my transcript for their files.  Several times my employer was HIGHER EDUCATION.

So...  in my instance, can I say that knowledge is power from an educational standpoint?

Not really.

However, if we say that KNOWLEDGE DOES NOT EQUAL EDUCATION and then that KNOWLEDGE IS POWER...  then, that phrase just might be more accurate.

Knowledge is one's understanding of how to use education to achieve power through that knowledge.

In other words, RESULTS...

KNOWLEDGE = POWER = RESULTS
