That is a very white educated way of looking at being educated.
The "skill" as you say has been taught to them so in
their field they are educated.
"and even if they could all be educated, where would they find employment?"
How about creating industries that create work / jobs / employment
just like some have already done ie Fresh flowers grown in Africa and
flown to Europe each day or week - an industry that creates jobs / work for pilots !
