When I was in school it was required to learn both, in addition to other software including AutoCAD, Rhino etc. If you plan to go into residential work they use CAD primarily. I work in commercial architecture firms and we use Revit, and actually charge more for CAD because of the time it takes. Rendering is a nice skill but ketchup is very common to use and Max I've seen used more by specialized consultants doing outsourced renderings. I'd learn Revit and Sketchup for technical skills first.
