I've compiled the list of 7 things that you should learn outside of the classroom. However, this list does not just stop here as there are many things like creativity, productivity, personal development and management skills that can help you become successful.
How to handle money
They never teach you about the importance of saving and putting money aside in school. Even a little bit is good, because you never know when you'll need it.Even something as basic as doing your taxes and tracking your spending are so important!
Networking
GiphyYes university degrees are great, but in 2019, it's also about who you know. Having good contacts makes life so much easier, especially when trying to find a job. Learning some good social skills would make a world difference.
Living on your own
InstagramFeeding yourself, laundry, cleaning, locking all the doors/ windows when you leave the house etc. seems logical right? But when you are working or studying, you forget to do these things. You should learn how to balance these tasks and how to prioritize.
Sexuality
https://www.youngisthan.in/opinions/lgbtq-people-reveal-hide-sexuality/55808Despite it being 2019, schools still avoid talking about sexuality due to many reasons. So educating yourself on these things can help you in a long run.
Life after university
GiphyPeople go to university and think the minute they graduate, they'll have jobs lined up. Truth is, you'll either get lucky and have a job, do an unpaid internship, or struggle to find something point blank. Thus, you should start learning how to job hunt and how to apply properly.
Basic first aid
GiphyBasic first aid should be an essential to learn. Whether you use it or not, a basic first aid training could save a life! Accidents happen too much not to learn it.
Basic cooking skills
University students spend too much money on take aways or eating out, not just cause it's easy and quick but also because they don't know how to cook for themselves or meal prep.
