'Attempt to read property "degree" on null

i have created a profile where users can add their education fields.

when there is no value in the database it throws an error. how can i get rid of this ? Attempt to read property "degree" on null.

public function myEducations()
    {

        return $this->hasMany('App\Models\Education','user_id')->orderByDesc('endDate');
    }

controller

 public function myProfile(\App\Models\User $user)
{

               $user = Auth::user();

    $education = $user->myEducations->first();

    return view('candidate.profile',compact('user','education'));

If the users of you application are filling in their education details later only. You should ideally catch this condition when rendering your view. For example you could try the following:

@if ($education)
  {{ $education->degree }} - {{ $education->fieldOfStudy }}
@else
  <p>Education details not available</p>
@endif

You have to inspect in an if statement $education->degree is not null. If not null, degree has value, this part will render. Else, it doesn't have value so else block appears in template.

@if(null !== $education->degree)
    {{ $education->degree }} - {{ $education->fieldOfStudy }}
@else
    // there is no degree
@endif
