well I believe on average some one with a masters will make more, also if there is a job, I have a bachelors and you have a masters who do you think they will pick for the Job? lucky you, I will be eating romen noodles for another few weeks lol

Actually, I would ask your supervisor what would be most beneficial to you.  For all you know, they may have shortages in other departments that they'd love to promote you in to. \n\nHowever, if you're really enjoying your current position, and want to move up in your department, I'd advise getting a degree in Business, with a concentration in Management.  You'll learn what you need to know for your current job, and with some Management background, you'll be highly promotable.\n\nGood luck!

having a degree will help you get a job and increase your chances of being promoted \n(many companies require that you have a degree when hiring and/or when promoting)\n\nwhat you want to do is how you should determine which degree

well, if you like this course, then go on with it. i think you should just work first with any companies that link with your studies and try to continue your study while working. with that, tou can both secure a good job with a good position as well as your studies.

i quiet agree to support u to go for it. because it is meaningless if u doing the work that u don't interest in and maybe u will find it is boring to do that the job u don't  interest in. i have the same problem as u when i need to decide between my interest and another course that give me more job opportunity and finally i decide to go for it and no having any doubt. that's all i am going to say for you.i wish u good luck.

I was able to get through my undergraduate degree, my MBA, and half of my law degree using my G.I. Bill.  It only really paid for the undergraduate studies (at a state school), but it was a welcome and needed allowance/expense account for the other two (private) schools.  Best deal I ever made.\n\nCongratulations on your Associates.  Keep on plugging along!

My sister had sort of the same situation. Luckily her job let her go to work a few years later to pursue her master degree. It looks better on the job resume anyways. Tell your future boss that it would look better and help you do your job better too. Go after a college degree. Education is worthless, and even if you don't get this job, by the time you have your college degree, more jobs will be rolling down teh street for you. With more education, more jobs are likely to accept you. =D

You deserve an ego boost.  \n\n1) Associates have value\n2) You have 3\n3) You have two related certificates\n4) You are multi-lingual\n5) You're in currently in school for a nursing career\n6) Demand for qualified nurses will continue to drastically increase for the rest of your lifetime\n7) Dependent upon your location/region, there is no reason not to get a job with an annual salary of at least $31 or $32k at the entry rate.  If you perform well, you could be at the market rate within 2-3 years.\n\nReady for the Truth?\n\n1) Associates do not have the power of BS's or BA's\n2) You're all over  the career board without any work experience\n3) You're suffering from a lack of confidence\n4) You don't know where you're going\n\nFixes:\n1) Figure out what you want to do\n2) Figure out a plan to get there\n3) Do it!\n\nGood Luck!

Bad idea. That is what I have and never helped me with getting jobs. Better to specialize somewhat but still keep is somewhat broad like a BA or BS in Business, economics, etc.. Employers seem to like that better I have found.

Well, I completed my B.A in psychology and am making diddly squat in my job. (i live in canada). There are too many people taking this degree, so it is really hard to get into graduate school. And with just the B.A, jobs are pretty scarce, as psychology is not an edcuation that "trains" you for any particular job. I am currently doing a social work degree, just to be able to actually have a "career". If you want to be a counsellor, have to have a masters or doctorate. As for the comment someone wrote about the behaviour therapists making tons of money, i am an ABA therapist, and make $500 every 2 weeks (for 30 hours/week), that is nothing compared to most with university degrees. I could make more at walmart. . but i feel like going for such employment is a "waste" of my education. However, i needed such employment to apply to other schools, but remember, most grad schools in psychology fields take like 20 students per year at the MOST...dont mean to discourage you, but just because the degree is very interesting, doesnt mean it would be a good choice. Do it as a minor if you really want to do it.

Ask yourself why you suddenly want the change from a useful degree to one more abstract? Languages are good to study, as is literature... but how will you feed your children and your future self if your pursue literature? As an academic librarian, I ask this question back to you!

seems to me that mba is becoming the minimum requirement for some jobs.  I guess that's just the evolution of society...it used to be that you just needed a HS diploma, then a bachelors degree.  I think it pretty much just makes you more competive.  I just started working on mine...can't wait til it's over!

If you're able to support yourself with this current job, I think you should stick with it until you graduate. Then you can move more easily onto something bigger and better and you will have your degree and a bunch of on-the-job experience.

What ever you do, you'll find that every profession or career having a common object of helping others, yes it may be directly or indirectly. But which profession'll pay you higher its a question of opportunity and depends about your interests and understanding. You should first see with what subjects you feel comfortable and interesting or ask your teachers, who definitely have a better idea about your ability.

I think it all depends on whether you want to do research. If you do then getting the MS right now is a great idea, but if you want to just work then I say go for the course and get a job. If you want to have your cake and eat it too, then you might consider pursuing the MS part-time, taking the course, and getting a job. Think of what you want to accomplish in the long run and your choice will be easier to make.

If you are interested in the money aspect, go for it.  You will make alot more if you have a Master's degree.  Employer's see this on your resume and more times than not will hire you on the spot.
