I am a "newbie" on here.
I attended Northwestern University in Chicago but then I had to relocate to another state...never was able to get back in school once I started a new career path at present employer.
In my 40s and employer is pushing I obtain a degree if I want to be promoted.
Present employer does offer tuition reimbursement if it is in line with what I do now- Business Data Analyst using SAS/SQL, if that helps to know.
But if I pay myself, I can pursue whatever I please.
COURSES I have completed at Northwestern University to major in Leadership & Organizational Behavior:
Thinking to start with Associates to get something done and then go after the Bachelor's.
QUESTIONS:
Open to any suggestions and counsel regarding the surest and quickest route to a degree.
Thanks in advance.
