Drivetime RTE: ‘Talking Money’ on the price of education

This week on ‘Talking Money’ we looked at the ‘cost’ of education. I sometimes say ‘if you think education is expensive try ignorance’ but that doesn’t mean you have to opt for an expensive education. There are trade and professional apprenticeships and other routes to getting highly skilled, and going to university for a lot of people is not the best use of their time, we tried to articulate that while acknowledging the validity and importance of third and fourth level education.
