<p>I’ve switched “careers” at least four times in my lifetime. My first post college job (typist) was in no way was predictive of my eventual earning potential or career trajectory. Frankly, I credit a liberal arts education to the fact that I was able to be successful in very different careers–despite not having the “technical” skills to do any of them at the beginning.</p>
<p>Maybe this makes sense for certificate programs, where people are aiming for very targeted job types, but for liberal arts schools, I this could be just as misleading as than not having any information at all.</p>
