You may or may not know, only you can answer that; but yes, you should know

Should in what context? You can't really say someone should know something without knowing the person. If I'm a construction worker, should I know how to write a online grading system? Answer is no. Should I learn it, maybe. Could I learn it, maybe. But should I, not necessarily.

Harmless disagree - given the current state of the world economy, and in particular its adverse affect on the construction industry, then should is the right answer. It gives you a fallback: coding online grading systems - to handle the surge in graduating students deciding to take further education courses because there's no jobs - might be a useful skill when the construction company starts handing out redundancy papers.

Or improve your own skills. If I'm a graphics designer rather than a coder, I would rather spend my time perfecting and or improving my graphics skills rather than start learning how to code. It's useful to learn how to code; it's useful to learn a lot of things. If I have a good job that pays good money as a graphics designer, then I don't need to learn coding, something I have little interest in. Now if I don't have that lifestyle and I am desperate in finding a job, then yes, I should consider coding because there are many job opportunities in that field of study. But no, I wouldn't say it is a fallback plan.

 

When you say "yes, you should know", it implies the person should already know the subject, but he or she doesn't. It's like me saying someone should know how to code in PHP by the time one gets to the age of 18. It's completely nonsense.
