Get Online Law Degree From an Online College or University?
Nov 7th
Reader’s Question:
I am a secretary at a law firm in Miami Florida. My boss recently talked to me and said that she sees a promotion soon but not if I only have high school degree. I heard that the fastest way of getting an education is through online college education. How does it work?

Hello, Marin! You are lucky to have such a considerate boss who not only looks after the success of the business but also at the development of his people. You may feel pressured now but years from now you will look at this as a blessing in disguise because your boss has actually forced you to do something you should have done a long time ago anyway.
You are correct, the fastest way of getting a college degree is through online degree programs. It is the fastest, depending on your own performance, I should add, Marin. From your office in Miami Florida, you can search, choose and enroll in an online college program most suitable to your line of work. You may even want to get some words of advice from your boss since she seems to be genuinely concerned with you anyway. There are many available online college courses and so it is best if you already know what online degree you’d like to have. Like I said, it all depends on your performance, Marin. Online degree programs let you pace yourself so it will depend on how much time you devote to fulfilling the requirements of the online degree program. I guess your boss would even agree to let you stay a few hours after work in your office in Miami Florida to do some assignments or even take some exams. Like I said, you are fortunate to have a considerate employer and you will do good to heed her advice.

Reader’s Question:
I am working in one of the hotels here in East Seattle Washington WA. Work here is unpredictable, there are times when it can be really tiring but there are also times when we have nothing to do. I am thinking of getting an online college education. What course can I take?

Hello, Jada, I’m glad to hear from you today. And it’s also nice that you’re thinking on ways to improve yourself and there is no better way than to get a college education.
I understand that your work requires you to be physically present in the hotel you work for in East Seattle Washington WA and that’s why you can’t go to a university. So the online education system is perfect for you. You get to work at it at the hours you dictate and if your boss allows you to, you can even work for your online college degree when there is a lull at work, or during breaks. When looking for an online degree, the default would be the industry you are now in.
If you are happy with your present job and want to go up the ladder, you might want to take an online college degree related to your line of work, which will give you more chances of getting promoted, or seek other opportunities elsewhere in the same line of work.
You might want to get online degree for business administration or management courses so that you can learn more about the business of managing a business, or there are also online degrees available for hotel and restaurant management. Basically, Jada, you can get online college degree for anything you might be interested in so just evaluate your options.
