In terms of employment, why employers are searching for high educational background?

Because high Educational background is considered integral to the smooth running of an organization. and it also serves as forefront or fighting force towards development progress, achievement, in all aspects.  But in the other hand employers need to also focus on other institutional background  fore example Tasha re institution educational background, simply because some of this technical certificates the holders are doing well more than educational background. I've seen that on several occasion as a former lecturer in the Technical institute were i taught for almost three years. during this period many graduates were coming from University for them to  teach in the institute but they couldn't make it up as a graduate. To my little understanding employers should also thinking of this areas. all what to do is, the employers need to recruit technicians to be an assets to wards development for any works-life. because they can be used in any shape of form they can be as administrator, finance, fleet manager, etc.
