assume you're discussing the relative merits of a four year college vs a two year technical school.
The two year degree trains you to perform a specific task. In two years you can become a great welder, air conditioning technician, hairdresser, or even a computer programmer.
A four year degree educates you. Not only would you learn about computers programming, but you'd also learn how to communicate with others, you'd learn about English, Literature, Math, Physics, hopefully a foreign language.
The idea being that once you are "educated" at a 4 year college you would be able to hold your own in a social setting, AND you'd be better prepared to pick up essential skills as the technology changes. The four year degree doesn't just teach a skill, it demonstrates to potential employers that you know how to learn and that you're more capable than the typical technical school attendee.
