A course in camera handling/videography and light management (shooting and of stage) skills are one of the main components of film making careers.
I shall assume that the above course is an introductory level course where the person has learnt the basics and foundation have been created. It is also noteworthy that the course in camera shall involve - not all cameras - that are actually used in the field. To know all that one will certainly need one of the two:
1. A place to work where the skill and learning enhancement is an integral part of the working
2. A place to pursue higher degree where the previously learnt skills are enhanced via teaching, practice and live projects.
When available, the option 02 shall be kept as a priority. But unfortunately, we do not get many institutions that take the skills higher.
The professional course is done to start an occupation and earning. Hence, it is suggested that the camera and lighting course person should search for healthy opportunities to work in job. If that does not succeed then the time must be used to pursue higher studies in any field.

If your course has been of the level of a degree then, the job and career is your only door to knock at! If the course you have completed or will complete or even pursue is merely a Certificate Level or a Diploma (not a PG Diploma) higher studies can be given a thinking.
The reason is that a delay in getting a good job just after completing the course of certificate level, for a fresher, is difficult.

The first question: Should I opt for higher studies or pursue a job after completing a course in non-linear editing? It deserves a yes for a job if you are getting a job because the actual purpose of doing a professional skill oriented course or training is to put it into use and start earning the vocational income.
If the non-linear editing, which is much in use now, is coming your way in the form of a stable job where your skills will further improve, take that as a course of higher studies as well. Getting paid for learning will be a better thing than joining another institute just because the previous place did not teach you enough to get a job.
Why: Video editing has worked for all. Those who know video editing and have the interest to work on the same field, have work. It is just about making a good connection as well as presenting good work, which gets you more work and strengthens your career.
