Trials and triumphs of a middle aged student

Now that I have attained my degree, where do I go from here?  I knew before I graduated with my adult college degree from Granite State College that I wanted to continue my education so I am working on my MBA degree from our sister institution of the University of New Hampshire System, Plymouth State University.  I was able to take two of the required MBA graduate courses from PSU during this past year and have the credit awarded towards my adult college degree from Granite State College as well as towards my MBA degree.  Therefore I am beginning my MBA program with two courses already accomplished.

Now that I have decided to continue my love of education, what am I to do about my career?  The economy is slowly but surely turning around.  I have slowly but surely turned around my career options by attaining my adult college degree.  One of my business professors told me that any professional seriously looking to change careers should pay a professional resume writer to accomplish the task.  I took his advice and had the professionals at monster.com create my new resume earlier this month.  Below is my new education portion of my resume.  Before this week it simply incorporated my High School diploma.



I have many years of practical business knowledge and now have the degree to compliment my experience.  My real passion and ambition is to somehow enter the fields of HR or Organizational Communication/Public Relations at the age of 43!  My adult college degree is a B.S. in Business Management with a minor in human resources and a concentration in communication.  Being able to say that I have attained my adult college degree not only offers me more opportunities it boosts my confidence in myself.
