IT Education

The Information Technology industry is a very competitive one. With so many IT related courses, it is hard to maintain an edge over everyone else. Is our computer knowledge and skills relative to our education? One would say that a good education would instantly lift us up a notch over other programmers, but i believe otherwise. Although we are fortunate to have a good and reputable education, not everything we learn comes from school. Practice and experience makes us good at what whatever it is we do, not just our education. Programmers are not equal, even within one university. My point is - any school could produce successful programmers, and good schools could also produce the worst for that matter.
