A vocational school, providing vocational education and also sometimes referred to as a trade school or career college, is a school operated for the express purpose of giving its students the skills needed to perform a certain job or jobs. Vocational schools do not exist to further education in the sense of liberal arts, but rather to teach primarily or only job-specific skills, and as such are better considered to be institutions devoted to training, not education.
