Dear clamates, our respected teacher and friendly opponents, good morning, I am the pro speaker.Our subject is diploma represents competence
Many people hold the idea that diploma can not represent competence.Here I want to ask you one question.Why do more and more students, including you and me, choose to take part in the entrance exams for postgraduate schools? Sincerely, it’s all because we believe that a higher diploma can represent our competence and can help us get a better job in the future.For our object, there are some reasons.
First of all, Diploma represents one’s learning experience.Because of social needs，people’s learning experience is artificially divided into multiple levels.When you reach a certain level, you will be able to achieve the appropriate level of diploma, according to profeional organizations or school aements.In other words, to obtain the corresponding qualifications, you must develop the corresponding ability through your learning proce.
Second: What’s the standard when we evaluate a person? It should include his self-worth and the final realization, To achieve self-worth ，we need two eential factors-objective conditions and subjective conditions.And diploma precisely includes these two factors.Firstly, seeing from the subjective conditions, diploma, as a learning course, is the proce of gradual accumulation of knowledge and promotion of competence.Secondly, in the objective conditions，diploma can provethe education you have accepted to the world, can provide the standard of a selection of talents.To some extent, diploma is one kind of affirmation to personal competence.
Third: We can not deny the fact that people with high diploma turn out to be low-ability ones.But we should also notice that the phenomenon mentioned is not universal.Emphasizing it too much can only take us into the wrong region of overgeneralization.Meanwhile we must improve the gold content of the diploma, thus we can cultivate the high-quality talents.
To sum up, diploma is an inevitable stage to the development of one’s competence, it is also a mark to demonstrate one’s competence.Therefore, we agree that diploma stands for a person\'s competence in modern society.
