The school and the workplace often characterize two diverse cultures in terms of what is treasured as important skills and values. The role of vocational teachers is to ensure that the students are surrounded by both these cultures. Because the way vocational education and vocational teaching is valued in the courses enclosed to the area of construction and painting field, the students miss a lot of knowledge to become an conscious citizen. However, because of significant differences between the school and the workplace, this positions a professional challenge and a potential for value conflicts. This reflects in the way teachers value such things as critical thinking and the way characters for employment tend to be organiseed in the education. Some values change with the help from schooling to become an educated teacher, some do not. Because years of practice in one profession tends to give a person a strong identity, and this identity follows them, until they take a constructive side too see things from additional side, with the knowledge from those around them.
