Some careers require at least a(n) degree/certificate/education. Not a waste.
Others don't care and look for experience, so co-ops and internships are useful (sometimes you get unrelated ones...)
But you could also get experience on your own volunteering, pro-bono work, freelancing, self-learning, etc. Here, post-sec could be a waste. Depends on what you make out of your education and time and what you want to do.
Meeting all kinds of different people is what's been valuable to me.
