No businessman or woman need a college certificate before become a successful business man or woman in life, let see people like Mark Zuckerberg who actually left school but what he keep on learning new things without college certificate, what he did is study and reading books and that make him a successful business man. So you must not have a certificate before you'll be successful in your business.

Business is not all about having a college degree but business intelligence. I have seen a lot of people who became very successful in various businesses even without having a college degree or any form of formal education. It's all about knowing the principles of becoming a successful businessman and having proper knowledge about a particular business.

Actually business does not require certificate or college degree to make it successful. But all I know about running a business is the use of skills and the application of such skills to meet a specific goals you want to achieved.

College degree is an added advantage and i don't actually mean the degree but the experience is an added advantage but the certificate doesn't gives you anything .

Although a college degree is not mandatory for entrepreneurship, attending college can be very helpful, as it teaches you soft skills like ownership, accountability, time management, prioritizing and emotional maturity.Consider gaining experience before starting your business, whether that be through volunteer work, apprenticeship, internship or general work experience.There are several questions you need to ask yourself before choosing entrepreneurship over college – you should evaluate your industry, skills, passion, experience, financial stability and support system.

That's perfectly said, you can still own your business successfully without a college degree, but education goes a long way for mental development in terms of prioritization and social acceptability.

Having a degree in business isn't a criteria for a successful business, rather, it's an added advantage to the business. It's more like an added value to your business, as you are not only practical, you also have theological knowledge of the business.

The funny thing is that the most successful people in businesses are not even those with college degrees. A college degree is going to position you well for your business but it is not going to influence how successful you are going to become.

You are quite right , most people that has a college degree does not have college degree before they started making it big but i still believe having a college degree or doing a course related to handling business in school is an added advantage.

A college degree is going to be paramount for you to understand the specs of business and the navigating it but it is not going to teach you sales and marketing which is also an important aspect of business.

Getting a college degree is not actually a criteria for having a successful business because they may be need for the degree later on in the future after you made it in the business but that is not the basic criteria for having a successful business. In order to have a successful business you must be able to think well and also follow your plan and be determined all these cannot be gotten only by college education.
