Answer:

industrialization

Explanation:

According to the A functionalist perspective on the rise of education  , the rise of education only occurs because society needs more people with high education to be able to operate.

But this perspective is overly simplistic.

There are a lot of cases that proof that people without a degree can do a certain task better compared to people with a degree, since expertise tend to be determined by how much time you put on one single thing rather than learning various skills on surface level.

Sharp rise on educational requirements can be explained better if we put industrialization into factor.

HR workers tend to put high education as requirement to help them filter out candidates that they need. They do this to make their job easier rather than having to test all applicants one by one. When this happen, it create a situation where younger generations tend to seek higher education in order to be considered as a candidate rather than focusing on actually having the proper skill set.
