Great post here. One thing I'd like to say is that most professional career fields consider the Bachelor's Degree like thejust like the entry level requirement for an online certification. Although Associate College diplomas are a great way to begin, completing your current Bachelors opens up many entrances to various professions, there are numerous internet Bachelor Diploma Programs available from institutions like The University of Phoenix, Intercontinental University Online and Kaplan. Another thing is that many brick and mortar institutions give Online versions of their certifications but generally for a drastically higher payment than the organizations that specialize in online degree plans.
