Hi all - long time no see!!!!!
Hubby is out of work after 10 years at the same job. He never needed a degree and in spite of my nagging never got one. Well, now suddenly the job market is telling him he needs one!! So we are looking at the absolute QUICKEST path to a degree. Some sort of business management would be the best and we're looking to enroll him in a university while he is job hunting so he can put "degree anticipated" on his resume as he does the job search. Being enrolled WHILE he is job hunting is REALLY important to the process, so please keep this in mind!
I am old and out of practice at this and obviously got my degree when things were different. I'm thinking after doing a TON of reading on the site that UMPI looks like the best option since we want him enrolled right away. Though please do tell me if I'm wrong.
What he needs is a degree plan that assumes he's enrolled and since he's unemployed, he has the whole day to work on study, but he's terrible at math. His experience begs management and business, though so what would you guys suggest? All of this Sophia and Study stuff came out after I graduated but I'm willing to learn. He's also willing to just do the classes at the actual university too. He has a handful of CLEP and DSST tests (that he did when I pestered him years ago) along with a couple of old community college courses, but let's just assume he's starting from zero.
HELP.
