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.
College Online Degrees – Do I Have To Attend a Class In Person?
Oct 31st
Reader’s Question:
I am a retired professor and have heard of online degrees for college. I was intrigued because in my days, you couldn’t have a college degree without actually attending the classes. How do online college degrees work? I used to teach in Berkeley California CA.

Probably online college degree has gotten more recognition these days, but it’s actually been around for quite some time. But perhaps the nature of our life and society nowadays makes it more conducive for online education to thrive.
Many of us are usually tied up with work to pursue higher or a second education, or some of us may have been forced to provide for themselves early on, and therefore were not given the opportunity to finish their college education.
Those two categories I’ve mentioned are the ideal target for online college education. Online education affords the student flexibility in his schedule. Of course, that is not to say that online education will be less demanding than traditional schooling. In fact, it is just like going to a physical school with lectures and home works and examinations, just done through the internet. When you look at it closely, it can even be more taxing since you have to perform well in both your pursuit of online degree and your job, lest you let one of them suffer.
I am pretty sure that universities in Berkeley California CA will be offering this, but you can check the internet to be sure. Who knows, you might even want to teach in one of them, Audrey.
