I quite agree with @thunderbitz2717 and I am living proof that this approach actually works quite well ; )
I have acquired several skills completely online. It may not be the traditional approach, so depending on one's domain of expertise, gaining recognition may be slightly less easy. However, nowadays there is a variety of online courses available that issue official certificates, and I think this kind of 'personalized education' will be gaining even more momentum in future! So the answer is: Yes, absolutely!

In the technology we had it now, my answer is yes! Because, nowadays compare before are easy to learn something just you have an internet into your home. YOu can make a lot of study depending on what you like to discover or to learn something. Just type in the google search then it will appear and it will be give the information link which you are searching for.

A real self education can be one of the best solution to success nowadays

It is possible of course. It is very effective specially if you are willing and very much eager to learn about something.  Studying hard may result a better education and become a professional one.

You should work hard if you want to become better in something. But many people can't make themselves study and in this case better to try collage at my opinion.

Someone can take important lesson

it is very possible in our time to study and become an expert.What matters most is
your determination and open mindedness.Being teachable with perseverance
you can achieve your goal.Simply put, you may not be a master untill you do the extra
studies yourself.

My cousin is a self-educated coder. With all the tutorials available online, if you have the will, anything is possible.

Certainly you can be a specialist without say a degree. I've seen in the past that some of the coders that are being hired don't even graduate from University's.It depends on the people themselves. It mainly relies on the attitude of the of the person undertaking this kind of education.

Certainly you can be a specialist without say a degree. I've seen in the past that some of the coders that are being hired don't even graduate from University's. As long as they are able to code well they can get very high paying jobs. Lots of these guys/girls are self taught through parents/youtube/online forums/etc. Other jobs can be done with the correct self training as well.

This is the new age of education.

It depends on the people themselves. It mainly relies on the attitude of the of the person undertaking this kind of education. By of course, this is not totally by self-education all the time, sometimes you will also need the guidance of some people to correct the things the you are doing wrong along the way. No man is an island they say. Of course you can make it alone, but it will difficult compare to having somebody that you can ask about the things that can't get through your head easily. Self-education will be much more easier if you have inspiration and determination while doing these stuffs.

for me nothing is impossible. with technology and diligence and perseverance of a person you can learn a lot. but having a guidance with the person that are more knowledgeable about the topics are very important because if you have that you learn fastest than googling because in the internet now a days you can't identify if its fact or an opinion only ^_^...

I believe self0studying and gathering information from the websites should be accompanied. good luck

It really is possible to become an expert by yourself. Nowadays, we have so much references that we can look up to and use; we just have to give and invest a lot of time.

i prefer self-education instead of going to highschool/school......schools are good for establishing contacts, meeting friends, socialising...but in all the years i noticed that i am better in self-education...researches on my own, reading books, searching for informations on the internet.....listening to a professor is fine...but i don't have that good  learning effect.......of course i know that everyone is different, so maybe self-education is not working for others...

from my point of view, not even the need for new knowledge to attach importance to self-education, and basic human interest and curiosity. Think, are you not interested to learn about this world more, to uncover its mysteries, to find something new about what you do not know, even without any practical application of the knowledge acquired, but just for myself to fill his inner world with new ideas about the world outside? It's so exciting! You know, they say most people are curious and lazy, so they are interested in nothing except what relates to their basic needs and they to anything new not seek. But I don't think so. I believe that curiosity due to various circumstances the person may fall asleep, so he squeezed in a certain frame to feel comfortable. However, if you awaken his curiosity, his curiosity, his interest in everything new and unknown, then self-education will become one of the meanings of life. We've done that with some people, awakening their interest and curiosity, after which they dramatically changed their lives by starting to actively educate ourselves and something to strive for. I often work with people in this direction. So do not rush to give an unequivocal answer to the question, should you self or not. Let's look that it can give a person another, and from a practical point of view.

Most students and graduates who became professional and espicialist on their chosen filed of study is because they hoard most of their free time to study, they research hot topic issue, explore new things, sometimes they spends experimenting by themselves, testing new project on their own, since not all information are discussed inside the classroom.

If you do not procrastinate, have good discipline and a clear mindset as to in which area you want to become a specialist within then you could certainly do so. Not shying away from taking constant contact with other specialists or companies to continiously push towards gaining more insight will certainly accelerate the process.

The best way of education imo.

It is possible but depends on time you spending on your education and talent is also matter. But sometimes you just need experience of others specialists.
