What Do You Want To Be When You Grow Up?

As we approach the holiday season that brings gifts to many of us, it always reminds me of that spirit I get around this time of year. It brings out the kid in me, and thinking of all those toys from the past takes me back to my childhood. So, I'd like to ask you a question: What did you want to be when you grew up?

I remember watching movies like Star Wars, and growing up like a kid with my head in the clouds. I guess you can say I was your typical boy that dreamt of being an astronaut. Of course those days have since faded away, but I think to myself now and then, "What if...?" After thinking about "What If?" I realized that my time and your time has not passed you by. You can still change your life to point it in the direction that you want(ed) to go. Instead of asking what you wanted to be when you grew up, I'm now asking what do you want to be WHEN you grow up?

The College Network can make these dreams possible. We have higher education online from our partner universities in the form of professional certificates and degree seeking programs. So if you wanted to be a lawyer, you can pursue the Boston University Paralegal Certificate and work your way into the legal field. If you wanted to be an astronaut like me, consider the Project Management Certificate through Boston University Corporate Education Center or the Lean Six Sigma Certificate program through a leader in the aerospace industry, Purdue University. If you wanted to be in the medical field, and you are an LPN/LVN or Paramedic now, we can help you become an RN and move up the ladder in your career.

So, if you think you're a grown up, but still have childhood dreams, feel free to contact us today and we'll be more than happy to help in assisting you toward your goals.
