I am curious though what can one do with a fema associate?
Good advice though Chris but when I see older people in college I don't really think anything but then again I dunno. I am 25 but could pass for 19 easy lol..
I hope I'm answering this right because I don't know where your question stems from. It used to be possible to use a lot of FEMA credits toward an AAS in Environmental, Safety, and Security Technologies from TESC, but TESC no longer accepts FEMA credits. Frederick Community College will accept FEMAs toward their emergency management degree, but they will charge $80 per FEMA credit. Excelsior will only accept FEMAs off of a Frederick Community College transcript, so you will still have to pay $80 per credit hour. COSC accepts FEMAs directly without an additional charge, but they only offer associate's degrees in general studies.
An associate's in general studies or something similar is just a "check-the-box" degree that can be used for a position that requires any generic associate's. There is not really much one can do with an associate's in emergency management. Experience will be more important than a degree in emergency management, but it's difficult to break into this field. If you want to move up, then a bachelor's degree would be what you should be aiming for.

If you decide to study nursing, you will spend 4 semesters taking clinical nursing courses that take place in hospitals, long term care facilities, and other venues. Becoming a registered nurse requires many hundreds of clinical hours of performing the duties of a nurse while being supervised.
