Perhaps this is a disconnect: "academia not only teaches you tested methods it also teaches you why you use them and how to determine which ones are best suited for a given situation."
In the US, I can't 100% defend our universities (of which I am a product...both engineering and MBA) of achieving this (which would be a fine) goal.
In fact, in the US, it's proabably easier to be skeptical of "The Ivory Tower", where one hears what will work and should be done, only to go into the field, and find out it's a bunch of non-practical garbage from a textbook some prof wanted to sell.
