I only come here to read the definitions, differences....whatever you want to call them.
What is the difference between Vocation and Profession?
• Though both vocation, as well as profession, indicates the career or the occupation through which an individual makes a livelihood, vocation is a broader term than profession.
• Profession refers to the career that one opts for, getting extensive training and acquiring special skills to become eligible for a job in it.
• Vocation refers to an occupation for which god gives a calling to the individual.
• Vocation can mean not just the profession or the occupation that an individual pursues for a living but also the occupation for which he receives a calling from god.
• Profession requires training and qualification whereas vocation is the innate ability in an individual towards a particular occupation.
• In modern times, a vocation refers to an occupation for which a person has special abilities or is trained to do that job.
