Does high education really determine high income?

It should be said that there is a high degree of education and high income, but there is a high degree of correlation. Because in the process of receiving education, it is actually the process of improving individual employability, especially higher education. Because of receiving professional education, in a sense, individuals have improved their employability in the process of receiving education, and strong employability means corresponding high income. So there is a positive relationship between the two, but it is not a completely equal relationship.

First of all, education plays a leading role in the development of individual employment quality and employability.

Personal employability refers to the ability of individuals to engage in social professional labor. Personal employability is not only manifested in the knowledge and skills of employees, but also in the intelligence and ability of employees. In modern society, employees' employability is mainly reflected in three aspects: social ability, adaptability and creativity. The factors that affect and determine an individual's employment quality and employability mainly include talent quality, personal interest in education, personality, social practice, personal diligence and objective social environment. Among them, education is a specific way and method to cultivate and develop individual employment quality and ability, and plays a leading role in the development of an employee's quality and ability.

Second, education is an important way for individuals to increase their employment income.

Different industries, the same industry, different levels, income, social status differences and so on. Individuals always have different professional jobs, which is different from employment income, and it is not only the original ability, family background and other personal characteristics that affect individual employment income, but also social history, social system factors, as well as social and economic development status and level. But since the theory of human capital came out, education has become the most obvious example of human capital investment. The U.S. Department of Labor classifies occupations as 1 1, and each level of occupation basically has a clear education level, or academic qualifications, or vocational training requirements. Such as lawyers, doctors, priests and other professional work. In addition to obtaining a bachelor's degree, it is required to have two years of professional study time, and work in the Academy of Sciences, physical biology, social sciences and other fields, with a doctorate. For most professional jobs, a bachelor's degree is the most basic requirement, such as mechanical engineering, medicine and environmental beautification, so personal professional competition is the competition of academic level in a sense. At present, in the process of domestic employment, there are also basic requirements for acupoints, which means that if you don't get the corresponding academic qualifications, you are not qualified to enter certain industries and occupations at all.
