Guess it is time for my semi-monthly college update. What a busy two weeks it has been. On December 23, 2014, I had 15 courses left to complete my degree. I was informed that my degree program was being adjusted. They combined my two Communications courses into a single class…
Finally, after months of getting sidetracked, I finished the Web Design course. Yes, I know I missed a couple of questions. I Probably overthought the answers. Anyway, on to the JavaScript course. Hoping to have it done by the end of the year.
This post was originally on Microsoft’s Born to Learn website on July 16, 2014. You may have seen these advertisements: “Current IT Certifications could waive up to 25% of the credits toward your college degree.” I had ignored the ads in the past but thought it might be time to…
What a busy month. I achieved a perfect score on my Web Development Project. However, I will probably change it in the future to hold SQL Code Examples. I also passed my Web Fundamentals exam with a 77%. Not my best score, I will need to brush up on my CSS3. However, this means I…

Can’t believe I missed a question. But still passed the IT Fundamentals class and picked up a CIW certification along the way. Think I will take on Math Fundamentals and/or the Critical Thinking class next. Probably will save all my Web Programming courses for the end of the term.
First Official day of college. I think I am off to a good start. This is what I’ve completed so far. IT Fundamentals Level 1 – 66% Foundations of College Math – (Couldn’t start until today.) Reasoning and Problem Solving – 36% Project in Web Development Fundamentals – 38% Web…
One week into the program and I’ve finished the first class. Just waiting on the voucher so I can take the final. Still seems kind of silly that after 20 years in the IT field that I still had to take IT Fundamentals Level 1. But on the bright side, I was able to…
Just finished 12 hours of orientation. That was really boring. Now just have to wait for my student mentor to be assigned and for them to clear my courses.
