What do you think about higher education, is it necessary these days?

I believe that learning is very important in the modern world. But it doesn't have to be a university. But unfortunately, without a higher education diploma, they do not always take a job.

it used to be "it's not what you know, it's who you know" and it still is very much like that indie devs with no schooling can be just as successful, if they have the right idea and/or team- or a solid leader to partner with

From the perspective of learning, absolutely not. As it pertains to relationship building on the other hand, there’s nothing like it.

Hey, Natalia! Thanks! That's a great question! Like most of the people here, I'm sure that it's necessary as a form of socialization and feather connections, for sure✨

I think that in some careers, especially business-related, higher education as it is known today will not last long. But higher education still has a key role in our society and there are careers where it will always be there, it will iterate, but it will be there. Careers related to science, medicine, etc You don´t want self-made doctor, don't you? Like it always happens nothing is white or black.

For me, higher education is valuable because there you can find good people, get connections and learn how to connect with people. On the other hand, teaching methods at some universities aren't the best, the educational base doesn't have a tendency to be regularly updated, so some things are outdated. But if you're sure that you will devote a certain part of your life to this profession, then it makes sense to develop within the framework of this science and contribute to its development.

I don't think it's necessary as long as you are still learning in other ways.
