If you want either a technical or professional career in the energy arena but don’t have the qualifications, you have to earn them. It’s just that simple. But it’s more convenient than ever to complete either a technical or bachelor’s degree. Thanks to the magic of the Internet, a growing number of schools of higher education work around your schedule and your location. Don’t mistake convenience for ease. Anyone offering an ‘easy’ way to earn a degree should be avoided like the plague, and there are scads of such offerings. While the importance of education for energy careers can’t be understated, it is absolutely critical to understand the importance of getting a REAL education _________________________________________________________________

EDUCATION FINANCING Can you qualify for scholarship help? It depends on a number of factors including income level, ethnicity, past academic standing (grades), veteran status, and a long list of other factors. Caution! The importance of education financing attracts scammers from all over. The Internet is loaded with scholarship search sites that charge varying sums for what often turns out to be useless information. That’s not to say that they are all bad. The best way to find out if you qualify for any scholarships is to consult the finance department of the accredited school you plan to attend. They are, without a doubt, your best guides to scholarship funding. If needed, they can direct you to worthwhile scholarship search sites. And there is another, often overlooked, way to pay for higher education. Many companies are well aware of the importance of education and will invest in the education of their employees. The U.S. Government and many other Government organizations including the military also have excellent scholarship programs for employees. Since you are seeking higher education with the intention of changing jobs anyway, you might consider changing jobs now and going to work for an organization that will help pay for your education, and give you a promotion when you graduate. _________________________________________________________________ EDUCATION RESOURCES The education sites shown here link to hundreds of colleges, universities, and technical schools.
