hello @Anonymous
you know there two sides of every coin, same is the case with you
If you know the manual process every thing which you want to use a software, you will be a great professional
and that needs time, you may feel that education system is your country might be holding you back, but I guess they want you to be an excellent Professional with deep understanding.....
although everyone has his own perspective, and you also have your own
but I want to advise you that "Give your 100%, you won't regret"
and no one is stopping you from learning online I guess ?? if so
then please use "academy.autodesk.com"
I myself has learned a lot from there, Good Luck
