Answer 1

Answer:

Some careers require college degrees whilst other require technical training. Careers requiring college degrees usually require one to have an in-depth theoretical as well as some practical knowledge of a subject such that the background knowledge would take years to learn.

Careers requiring technical training on the other hand are more practical in nature and as such do not require as much background knowledge and some training will be able to get the person into the career where they will then learn more as they do more.

College Degrees

• Supply Chain Manager - they deal with the company's supply chain network and logistic strategies. This therefore requires a high degree of knowledge in data and processing, analytics, management strategies and the like.
• Auditor - they ensure that company accounting is done in accordance with accounting standards and thus require in-depth knowledge in accounting.
• Survey Researcher - they help conduct research for various subjects and have to deal with  interviews, focus groups, and the like. They will also have to analyze data which will require in-depth knowledge and training,

Technical training

• Insurance Sales Agent - they sell insurance packages to people. This therefore needs only the knowledge of what the packages so and so requires technical training.
• Office Clerk - they perform an array of jobs in the office including administrative and clerical tasks. This therefore requires training.
• Engine Assembler - they construct engines by putting the different parts together and as this is more of a hands-on role, it requires more practical knowledge gained from technical training. However, there are some engines that will require knowledge of a degree level.  

Answer 2

There are several differences between job training and college or bachelor’s degrees.  

First, bachelor’s degrees length are often longer, undergraduate education programs usually take a four-year and they include general education courses as well as specific ones directly related to the specific major training.  Administrative Services Manager , Survey Researcher , and Training and Development Specialist are examples of careers which require a college degree.

In contrast, job training programs often have a shorter length since they are focused on preparing students just for a particular job. Billing Clerk  and Parts Salesperson are examples of careers which require only a training.
