Going to school now actually is realizing a dream for me, going for something that will allow me to change careers and reach my goals.
I mentioned in my post the other day that looking for a school to attend that is 100% online is not for the faint of heart, it is a jungle out there and you need to bring some equipment on your journey. More on that in my next post, for now, I will just tell you that I have decided to seek my degree by attending Tiffin University. Tiffin University is in Ohio; they are a private school that has been around since the late 1800s. So far Tiffin has been attentive and helpful without acting like telemarketers on the last day of the month that are trying to reach their goal (no offense to folks in that line of work, I have done it).
My daughter received her graduate degree from Tiffin University, and she had a good experience and now has a degree from a reputable school. My daughter was my best reference, and not that I do not trust her, but I did do some of my own research, more on that at a later date. Like a suspense novel right?
I am seeking a degree in Healthcare Administration; this may not seem terribly exciting to some, but it is for me as it allows me to make a career change and meet my long-term goals. In about five years or so I want to move back to the east coast, near a beach. The area I am considering does not have a lot of large business, which is necessary for my current career. However, this area does have a large health care presence. With twenty years of management and my newly earned degree, I am hoping to be able to make this move and earn a good living. Bonus, I will be living near the beach and not need to move when I retire. Great plan right?
