Most jobs in business are really not that hard to learn on the job. The only people who really need an education in the field are those in accounting and finance.
You can actually learn finance without getting a degree and before you get the job. I am looking at the curriculum that the big hedge funds and investment banks use. Certification by the curriculum provider usually will score you at least one interview, and you have a leg up on the competition since you don't have to be trained.
