Try getting some certifications, like A+, Network+, MCP.  Let your possible employer now that you still have the skills you need by showing them the certifications.

First, you have to decide which courses you can afford and what kind of online programs they offer.  Look at local colleges or uni's.  Then look at the courses they provide.  They will all be categorized and will have details about them.  \n\nThe best advice I could give you is to go to the school one day and tell someone what you would like to be doing.  It sounds silly saying, "I wanna do something with computers" but think about it - one silly question will help you determine the rest of your life.\n\nHappy Hunting.

A degree might help him get knowledge, but experience is what he needs. There are a lot of books that he can read to learn how to do this. You dont need a college degree to repair computers and to start your own business. You only need a degree if you want to work for a company or for somebody else.

An Associate Degree is a college degree that on average takes two years to achieve. You get one from a Community/Junior College. An Associate Degree is less prestigious than a Bachelor's Degree (four years to achieve) or a Masters Degree.

A bachelors degree is sort of the accepted starting point for the IT field.  Does she have any professional certifications?  You also did not mention what the Associates degrees were in.  Are these degrees technical?\n\nShe could also try other types of positions, with IT type companies, to get her foot in the door.

As an area of study it is commonly referred to as information technology management. The study of information systems is usually a commerce and business administration discipline, and frequently involves software engineering, but also distinguishes itself by concentrating on the integration of computer systems with the aims of the organization. The area of study should not be confused with computer science which is more theoretical in nature and deals mainly with software creation, or computer engineering, which focuses more on the design of computer hardware.\n\nIn business, information systems support business processes and operations, decision-making, and competitive strategies.

It depends.  There are many jobs in IT that don't require a degree but most of them are entry level and require some OJT (on the job training) for you to be able to advance.   Many high school graduates may get these kinds of jobs if they were able to get some computer classes in school.\n\nBeyond that, you probably will need some kind of certificate in a specific computer area.  Many community colleges offer certificate programs geared specifically for you to pass the certification exam and that may help you to get into a higher level position.\n\nHowever, most of the advanced kind of jobs, especially those related to government or corporate business require a bachelor's degree.  The reason is the expectation that not only do you have computer  experience but be able to communicate well, both verbally and written, can interact with a wide range of people and have fundamental knowledge of the concepts that underly why things are done the way they are.\n\nAs a professor of computer science, I have had many students who returned to school for an undergraduate or graduate degree even though they have been working in the IT field for years.  The reason is they lack the fundamental insight about the concepts that drive the IT marketplace and have a disadvantage compared to those with degrees.\n\nMy advice is rather than looking for jobs that don't require education, look for the education that will prepare you for better and higher paying jobs.  This in my opinion will prepare you much better for a prosperous future especially since many of the lower level IT jobs are being sent overseas.

Get a BS in Computer Science or Information Systems avoid MIS as that is more business oriented.\nPlus get a cert from either Cisco or look at CISSP \nhttps://www.isc2.org/cgi-bin/index.cgi\n\nInformation assurance and security are the newest trends.\nLook at SOX act and HIPPA
