I think there are both pros and cons of practical and information courses. Practical knowledge teaches some practical tools which are helpful in industries. Industrial courses get over in short period but practical courses take time to become expertise and needs continuous practice and need to update yourself with the latest technology. Informational knowledge gives a deeper understanding of the concept through context whereas informational courses gives deeper understanding in terms if actual practice and experience. Nowadays there is more emphasis on the practical knowledge so I think It important to learn practical courses to have better opportunities in future.

Thank you!
