Special Education eLearning

There just isn't enough time in the day anymore for me to try and take classes at a college. That means anytime I want to get involved in a bit of continuing education it will be with e-learning. Taking classes online.

Capella University, an accredited, online university based in Minneapolis, Minn., recently introduced a new Bachelor of Science in Public Safety program, as well as eight new graduate and undergraduate specializations in psychology, education, information technology, business, and criminal justice. Enrollment is now open, with classes beginning summer quarter 2007.

It makes little sense for me to even try to get to a class room in a brick and mortar shop anymore. That is why such places as Capella that offer online classes really have become a major help to those of us who are interested in moving to that next level in our educations.

Best Buy Coupons and Deals

My favorite store is probably Best Buy. There are an abundance of coupon codes online so I usually go and try to find codes for those stores when I want to make a purchase taht can be done online. I'll buy virtually anything online except some items that are very heavy, or just palin cost a ton to get shipped. So I planned to buy a couple of video games today and went out to look for Best Buy Coupouns. Coupon Chief had about 1,000 stores with coupons so I bookmarked it for use all the time. They even have "how to" screen shots for some of the biggest retailers online that you can view to know exactly how to use these coupon codes.

Are Generation Y Employees bad?

A recent article I read at entrepreneur.com looked to debunk the myth that Generation Y (Those born between 1978 and 1990) are Lazy. Selfish. Demanding. Sounds like a great slogan for some personalized pens. The article brings up some interesting points that I am well aware of and find very true. In fact I think that this generation has one of the more difficult times in finding, and keeping work.

One of the main things that the article brings up is that Gen Yers are considered disloyal by many employers. This may be true, but ask yourself why that would be. Unless you are in business for yourself in this day and age, can you believe that you will be at your current job for more than 5 years? None of us are going to get into a company and keep that job, or even stay in the same company 20 years or more in this day and age. So the youth of today tend to be on the look out for a better job at all times. They just don't have the security that will be afforded to them like their parents and grandparents did when they got into that "great" company so many years ago.

It is hard to find work now. Good work that is. Manual labor is not as abundant as it once was, and even that is not close to the pay it once was. So most workers need some sort of education to find work at all that will earn them enough just to pay the bills. Then when they get into the workforce with that education they find that they aren't getting paid what they are worth. A man with a college education making less than $30K a year? That should be unheard of. Problem is that it isn't. With the struggling economy and the higher unemployment there are people with loads of experience out of work and taking the jobs that the new generation of workers should be doing. Those with experience are underpaid, and those with education aren't getting paid at all for what they trained for. It's an ugly market for those that don't take their livlihood into their own hands.
