In line with the fore going, i will like to lend credence to an area of life that has been relegated to the background - "Life after School". We live in a digital world but still live in Analogous four walls (Nigerian Federal University are Chief culprits in this category.), we are tutored for 4 years or more on principles and processes that were in vogue in the early 18th century, little modifications have occurred to our school curriculum but a whole world of change occurs on per second basis in the real world.

The world is a global village and unlike the days where we competed against our contemporaries from similar backgrounds, we now compete against the world made up of people of advanced technical status and prowess. Let me cut my long story short by presenting to you what I call "Wisdom for the future through development of career based software skills".

As a Civil Engineer by profession, i will be presenting some must know softwares that need to be learnt and developed to compete favorably in the Civil Engineering profession.
