For Electronics work which I have performed since 1976, the following 
factors were hepful. The vocational schools during the last two years of 
High school, Military derived education and continually staying in touch 
with technological advances is pretty much a necessity to stay successful.
Education before that seemed to be most effective when presented in a 
modular form where students studied at their ability. These students 
could then help their peers when they excelled past the other students.

Helping others learn is a learning experience in itself. When you teach, 
  you inherit the thinking processes for those you teach. A lot of 
concepts are better understood when viewed from different perspectives 
and at different thought levels.

Regarding license issues. No amount of education helps to make the 
conditions agreed to clear to understand.
