information technology degree online

Right now I work part time 29 hours a week for Portland Public Schools as a part time custodian, but it is getting really old. Thats why im going to portland comunity college and take most of my information technology degree online. I find I can save time without having to attend class physically. The bad part is if your not self motivated then I would recommend only taking classes in class. The two year degree called Computer information systems can be taking I believe fully online. I’m only taking two classes this term, Psychology and sociology. So, I’m contiplating taking classes and just getting this 2 year degree or doing that and then transfering ot Oregin Institute of Technology. This was my plan at first, but I did notice some jobs just want either experience. But how do you get the employers attention? I think you need a information technology degree if you want to get in the IT part of the computer industry. And, so jobs just require a bachlors degree. I think its just company policy. The great thing about the information technology field the pay is pretty good. A student starts out about 40k and I read the average pay is 70-80k for computer professionals. I would love to move up in PPS and get into the IT department. They are hiring for a few postions now, but the sad thing is I’m still in college. One day I will get their. I know I will. I learned to live looking at the bright side to everything. Think optimistic. Thoughts can change how you live your life. At least I think it does. This fall I will be taking mostly computer classes. So far I was taking some of the business classes and electives to see if I wanted to change my mind on my career choice. I’m older student, but it is never too late to get a education. It seems my classes sometimes influence what I want to really do with my life. In my marketing class I was hmmm maybe I should works towards a business degree. But after doing some research it is the most popular degree and the competition to get a job relating to this is fierce. Then I took a pyschology class and I was thinking man this would be a fun career. Then again I read it is the 2nd most sought after degree. Wow. Crazy how this is in order. I have always loved computers, the internet, and marketing. So I plan to stick to information technology and plus its a growing field.
