A lot of people might be wonder what am up to on this post. Well, the answer is simple, am here to spell out the advantages and disadvantages of having a local and a foreign degree.
Yes, as the names imply, a foreign degree is obtained abroad, while a local degree is issued in individual's home country.
However, there's a whole lot of difference between the two certificates and that's just what I will be talking about today.
Let me start with a local degree. As the name implies, a local degree is obtained in ones home country. The advantages of a local degree are that you can obtain it with little or no stress and the cost of obtaining it is not much compared with a foreign degree. The other advantage is that you can work with it in your home country. The major disadvantage of this type of degree is that the scope is limited to ones home country, i.e you may not be able to use it abroad as employers look at such certificates as cheap and below standard.
A foreign degree/certificate on the other hand has lots of advantages. A degree obtained abroad especially in developed countries like Germany, USA, England etc can be used to secure employment anywere in the world. Also, the holder of a foreign degree is respected and gets better pay anywere he choses to work. In other words, with a foreign degree, the sky is your stepping stone to greatness! The benefits cannot be overemphasised.
But you know, whatever has advantages has setbacks as well. Infact the only setback with a foreign degree is just the cost or financial involvement. To get a foreign degree, you need a strong financial base or a scholarship.
However, though the cost may be high, obtaining a foreign degree is a worthwhile venture that can change ones whole life. And with it, believe me, you can get to anywere you wish to, in the world!
Now the decision is yours, consider the pros and cons of both degrees and go for the very best.
Thanks for reading my post and watch out for more!!
