How good are those online degrees in the real world?

Tuesday, June 29th, 2010
koopyco asked:


I want to go back to school, but I work 30+ hours a week and I have my two toddlers at home, and I don’t want to be away from them more than I have to. I’ve been thinking about online schooling, but how much cred do they really get compared to an actual college degree from some university. And if they are pretty good, which online schools are the better ones to go with?

The Power Of Getting A Health Care Degree Online

Monday, June 21st, 2010
Andy West asked:


One of the most popular programs for online education today is that of the health care degree online. What makes this degree so desirable one might wonder? The answer is as simple as two words, job market. The current state of affairs in the world of health care is one of major need for workers. With a booming health care industry, there is pressure on potential employees to earn a health care degree online, instead of going a more liberal arts affiliated route.

If this is something that doesn’t seem to make sense to you, simply have a look at your local paper’s classified ads section. Under the help wanted ads, there should be a large block of advertisements dedicated to the health care field. This is why health care degree online programs make so much sense for those looking to get a job. It is the simple fact that if you sign up for a health care degree online program, you can count on the chances of getting a job after graduation much more than most any other field offered online today.

The average health care professional earns close to double the average wage per capita in the United States, and has a career filled with helping others. Obtaining a health care degree online can be the difference between making something of yourself in the near future, and spending another bunch of years figuring it out. This is because most people after college go through seven to eight jobs before they find their career. This is not the case when you have a health care degree online, because most people that earn their health care degree online have the pick of the litter when it comes to job selection in the medical field.

Another benefit of earning a health care degree online is the upward opportunity to earn future degrees in nursing, or even becoming a doctor. There must be a foundation for every building, and if you look at your career as a building, the health care degree online is your foundation. This is the cement that allows you to build a better, stronger, future for yourself, and your family. Many nurses spend time after earning a two, or four year degree, before returning to get their masters in nursing. It is often the case that some will achieve such comfort in their health care job without this degree, that they never go back and thus the wide open market for nurses today. Having a health care degree online can make you a better, more prepared person for the future.

Not everyone is prepared to earn a health care degree online, and it should be considered a major challenge for anyone that is interested in earning this degree. Simply because the job market is ripe does not mean that earning a health care degree online is an easy task, in fact, this is one of the more challenging degrees online today.

Some people are gifted with a knack for science, most of us are not, and it takes extra dedication to make earning a health care degree online a reality. This means that you will probably need to study more than your peers in other programs, and often will be faced with scientifically challenging puzzles, that aren’t easy to solve. However, for those that are able to tough it out, and earn this degree, the world literally is awaiting their arrival. For the first time in history there are more jobs in this industry, than there are people to fill them, that is why earning a health care degree online is the right choice for anyone that is ready for a great career in the health care industry.

How do you view online degrees?

Wednesday, June 9th, 2010
willie asked:


Some people prefer independent study and choose to obtain a degree in the distance learning format. There are traditional schools who offer online degrees in addition to the classroom option. There are also online-only or correspondence schools which offer distance learning degrees. Would you view their respective degrees the same and why?

What is your degree major and how does it relate to your career?

Wednesday, June 9th, 2010
Island Girl asked:


I have a degree in International Relations and a MA in International Commerce. I really want to pursue a career related to this field, particularly diplomacy, but the money isn’t so hot.

Another employment option (not really a career path) allows me to have a great life experience but doesn’t relate to my degrees. The pay is better too. It will still be good for my career eventually, but not so linearly related.

It’s self actualization versus material fulfilment.

How closely is your degree related to your career and how do you feel about that?
