Hey guys, it's Pierre here! Just wrapped up my first year studying Comparative Literature at Emory, quite ride so far. As an international student from France, I've been exploring different educational paths in Georgia specifically, I've started looking into the trade programs over at Lanier Technical College.

Now, don't know about you, but back home we view trade programs as pretty valuable alternatives to the traditional four-year degree paths. They seem to offer real-world skills in less time and can be more affordable. How do you think these programs at Lanier stack up against our four-year degrees? Are they seen as equally valuable here?

I'm curious about your thoughts. It's like comparing apples to oranges maybe, but hey, sometimes you're just in the mood for specific fruit, right?
 
Hey there, I'm currently at Mercer University but I've got friends at Lanier Tech who rave about their trade programs. They're all about hands-on learning and direct job placements. Definitely different from four-year degree, but not in bad way at all. You know what mean? Also, if anyone's worried about academic support, Savannah State has got your back.
 
Hey there! Teach at Georgia Regents University, so I've got bit of an insider's view on this whole thing. Trade programs like the ones at Lanier Tech are fantastic if you're looking to jump into career quickly. The hands-on training is second to none. But, remember, 4-year degrees offer broader education and can open up different opportunities. In my experience, they're just different pathways tailored to unique career goals. If you're also considering science programs, Georgia State's Biology department is top-notch. Spent some time there and it was truly impressive. Hope this helps!
