  • Educational Offerings Fail to Represent Full Spectrum of Technology
    Technology is a field that encompasses several areas, though students might not be aware of many of them when considering an educational tract in technology. Technology based fields outside of the obvious can be found in educational tracts such as science and mathematics, in addition to more popular tracts such as information technology and computer science.
  • America’s Managerial Nursing Shortage
    The fact that a nursing shortage exists is not lost on the medical establishment, nor the public in general. Less than expected enrollment and graduate rates for nationwide nursing programs combined with an aging baby boomer population have contributed to what many deem a healthcare crisis. What’s often overlooked is that aside from nursing as a profession, senior nurse administrators are retiring en masse.
  • Is Psychiatry Replacing Psychology?
    Pharmaceuticals are big business. From the prominence of drug manufacturers in the stock market to the scores of prescriptions dealt each day by physicians across the nation, pharmaceuticals touch most Americans through illness, injury or enhancement. One area where the prescribing of drugs has seen major increases over the last several years can be found is in traditionally psychological treatment.
  • Southern States Ahead on African American Racial Representation within Institutions of Higher Education
    Colleges and universities within the southern states are now, for the first time ever, showing representation figures that coincide with African American population densities, according to a study by the Southern Regional Education Board. This is above average for the rest of the country, placing what many in other regions typically believe to be a racially oppressed area firmly ahead on matters of educational equality as they pertain to African American students.
  • Homeschooling and College Admission
    Homeschooling has become more and more popular with each passing year. With the current state of our nations educational system, this comes as little surprise to many who have decided to educate their children on their own. Still, homeschooling is often misunderstood and decried by both by parents of non homeschooled children as well as the federal and state regulatory agencies who govern it.
  • Student Loan Controversy Heats Up
    The Student Loan Sunshine Act is the latest response by the House of Representatives over the recent student loan controversy brought to light through a recent nationwide investigation by New York Attorney General Andrew M. Cuomo. The act requires lenders to disclose all financial kickbacks and deals made with educational institutions and prohibits certain types of gifts and incentives deemed “questionable”.
  • Advertising Moves to the Digital Medium
    If you’re one of the countless thousands of soon to be college students considering advertising as a major, there’s a good chance you could be working in the online medium post graduation. While traditional advertising venues are certainly still viable, online advertising has come into its own and is poised to become the single biggest market for advertising dollars spent in the very near future.
  • Educational Management Offers Plenty of Challenges in the Modern Academic Climate
    Educational management is a field that was once almost exclusively occupied by former teachers who decided to take the administrative route to career development. Today, educational management is a degree option for prospective college students, and while the current state of our nations educational system is facing turmoil, the rewards for choosing this academic path are well worth it.
  • Thinking of Business as a College Major? Think Business Specialization Instead
    Business is business, as they say, but when it comes to a business education, not all degree programs have the same thing to offer. At one time, business management or business administration were the only two undergraduate routes to a career in business. This is no longer the case, and various areas of specialty are proving to be a better option for today’s students.
  • Why Choose an Online College?
    Since the very recent dawning of online learning at the college level, the stigma of an education with less merit than what can be gained through attending a traditional campus has been ever present. While that stigma has subsided over the years, there are still persistent questions as to the effectiveness of online learning. All things being equal in terms of tuition, is it really possible to get an online education that rivals a campus based education in both the knowledge gained and the inherent value of what it can do for a resume?
  • Project Management in the 21st Century
    Project management, whether in the context of information technology or business, centers on the ability to juggle and coordinate budgets, manpower and time. These three elements represent the cornerstones of any project, and when combined with a proactive style of project management, can be used to accomplish initiatives without cost overruns or delays.
  • What’s Wrong With Today’s Teachers?
    What’s wrong with today’s teachers? It’s a well known fact that academic performance is suffering in American society. National standardized testing reveals increasingly poor performance in reading comprehension, mathematics, science and every other area of academics for grades K through 12. So what exactly is it about teachers today that has resulted in the dumbing down of American children?
  • Early Childhood Education Standards Crucial for Adult Well Being
    It’s commonly known that early childhood education is critical for developing comprehension skills that will influence a child’s cognitive abilities and aptitude for learning. Of equal importance, yet seldom recognized, is how early childhood education can influence a child’s future attitude toward academics.
  • Art and Humanities Education Expands in Scope
    “Art and humanities” began as a catch all phrase in the world of education to denote educational tracts that were outside of more traditional choices, such as business, chemistry, mathematics and education itself. At some point along the line, art and humanities experienced a narrowing of identity and was formally designated as the dividing line between the aforementioned choices and more scientifically oriented degree options such as social sciences and criminal justice.
  • Outsourced Medical Billing Business Booming
    At some point in the mid to late 1990’s, health care organizations and establishments became acutely aware of the health insurance industries growing penchant for cutting costs wherever and whenever possible. This, in turn, made staffing a veritable nightmare for hospitals, clinics and other larger facilities as the paperwork associated with insurance claims required teams of knowledgeable billing and coding professionals and the office space to house their efforts.
  • Ecommerce the New Frontier for Business
    The computer age has revolutionized the world, yet its greatest contribution has yet to be realized in full. Though the dot-com boom of the late 90’s gave an all too fleeting and overextended glimpse of things to come, it’s the as yet unrealized online marketplace that will eventually change the way business is conducted.
  • The Price of a Good Education
    Many parents, new college students and working adults contemplating a return to college are concerned about the cost of a good education, and when faced with tuition and other associated expenses, it’s east to see why. Attending a college or university has never been cheap, but constantly rising tuition rates and the myriad of fees that most colleges now add can make it seem like an endeavor hardly worth undertaking.
  • The Fine Line Between Business Management and Business Administration
    For most in the business world, the distinction between business management and business administration is clear. Business management is associated with the personnel related and day to day operations of a business while business administration is often considered an upper tier position that focuses on the management of a business’ overall objectives.
  • Supply Chain Management for the Small Business Owner
    Supply chain management can be a complicated endeavor for multi location retailers, wholesalers, manufacturers and other business entities, though it’s no less complicated for small business owners and job shops who rely on the precise availability and deliverability of goods. If anything, small business owners have even more at stake, as they often lack the operating budget to withstand serious disruptions in the supply chain that would be more easily dealt with by larger businesses.
  • Maintaining Managerial Sanity in an Office Environment
    An office is not unlike a dysfunctional home, where multiple personalities are forced to exist in close proximity, usually for the purpose of a common goal which only a few are genuinely interested in seeing through to fruition. Managers are the parental units of the group, where employees can range from a child determined to bring home an impressive report card to the proverbial black sheep who rails against any authority.
  • The Rise of Free Agency and Sports Management
    Free agency has been called the ruination of professional sports, though it has done little to curb our nations appetite for all things athletic. If anything, free agency has managed to attract more attention to the team sports we love, with individual salaries and performance being scrutinized almost as much as team play.
  • The Business Side of Entrepreneurship
    Entrepreneurs are an ambitious lot, and true to form, make up some of the wealthiest people in the world. Whether speaking of Bill Gates and Steve Jobs or J.K Rowling and John Grisham, the business branding expertise and talent of some of the most successful entrepreneurs is indeed an extension of their work. While many might not consider authors to be entrepreneurs, anyone who turns an idea into a household name is exactly that.
  • How to Build A Career in Information Technology
    Information Technology is a field that encompasses a wide range of employment possibilities. From software development and hardware integration to webmasters and beyond, the possibilities are almost limitless. What isn’t limitless, unfortunately, are the educational opportunities related to IT training. For an industry that undergoes drastic changes on an almost yearly basis, it’s difficult for our current educational system to keep up. Relevancy is almost always compromised by lengthy computer science degree programs that teach fundamentals which the newest developments no longer adhere to.
  • International Business Degree Programs Capitalize on the Past
    Before the current global economy came to the forefront of public awareness, those of us already conducting business overseas were busy forming the basics of what would eventually become an educational field of study. We came from various backgrounds and industries, making our way through the highly regulated world of international trade. From Atlanta to Zurich, Chicago to Calgary, Bonn to Budapest and all points in between, we built on the foreign trade infrastructure which for years had languished under the tight regulatory control of less than accommodating bureaucracies.
  • Organizational Leadership and Management Crucial for Business Success
    I turned out of the company parking lot and, while stopping at the light, noticed the group of young adults setting up for the day’s business at the new bistro across the street. A few months ago, the location was home to a diner and less than a year prior to that, a home furnishings store. I wondered if the newest tenant would have better luck than the previous two. If not, it certainly wouldn’t be for a lack of potential customers as the area is highly populated with both business and residential zoning and precious few places to eat. I remembered the few times I went to the diner, and how poorly managed it was.
  • Fashion Merchandising Finding Popularity With Working Adults Returning to College
    The depiction of working adults returning to college to better their long term financial outlook while opening the door for better opportunities is accurate, though not all working adults view academic enrichment in those terms. Working adults are returning to school in record numbers, but many are doing so in order to find a career that affords a better lifestyle through a career that holds their interest.
  • The Advantages of an Undergraduate Online Education for Recent High School Graduates
    For most recent high school graduates, the temptation to take a little time off for fun, relaxation or travel is ever present. Many want to work and save in order to pay for at least a portion of their postsecondary education, while others simply wish to get away from academia for a while and sort out their options. Unfortunately, every delay in earning a degree can have adverse consequences on a person’s future ability to be financially independent and secure.
  • Business Management Education Choices Offer More Than Meets the Eye
    Business Management isn’t the most glamorous field of study in existence, though it does have its perks. As is commonly well known, a degree in business management almost guarantees solid employment prospects and a livable wage. Still, many see the field as a fast road to mediocrity and general working malaise. What many fail to realize is that the field of business management can be as enjoyable as any other and often more so, depending on the educational route and consequent business chosen.
  • The Politics of Office Management
    Office management has been portrayed in every imaginable way on television and in the movies, from the situational mix of drama and comedy on “Ally McBeal” to the overtly preposterous and over the top hijinks depicted on NBC’s “The Office”. Of course, the mundane reputation of typical office life is ripe for satire, as evidence by the sheer number of entertainment mediums in which it often serves as the basis for the humor to follow. In real life, offices aren’t any more void of humor, drama or even danger than any other working environment, though danger can manifest itself in the most peculiar of ways.
  • More to a Specialized Accounting Degree Than Mere Bookkeeping
    Bookkeeping is a term that is thrown about carelessly in business circles, though the primary responsibility of a bookkeeper is balance the company ledger. In the modern business world, doing so can require a lot more than simply deciding between single entry and double entry accounting methods. For example, tax liabilities for even the smallest of retail and wholesale companies can be substantially reduced or offset to provide maximum cash flow depending on how inventory is recorded and managed.
  • The Importance of Choosing the Right College Major for Working Adults
    Choosing a college major can be a major pain in the neck, especially for working adults attempting to redirect their careers. While new students who haven’t incurred the responsibilities of life in full force may have the luxury of changing direction several times throughout their academic journey, working adults have a different set of priorities when it comes to education.
  • The Basics of an Online General Business Management Degree
    Since the inception of online learning, many have wondered whether the lessons of academia can be effectively taught through a computer interface. In truth, there are several areas of education that can’t be conveyed online and do indeed require the combined presence of the student, the instructor and the necessary learning aids. Chemistry comes to mind, and true to form, there are few if any online chemistry degree programs.
  • Paralegal Education and Certification in the Field of Law
    In the grand scheme of the field of law, paralegals play an important behind the scenes role in the day to activities that result in settlements, cases going to trial and all manner of litigation. Long considered the backbone of the legal field, their work is often unheralded though an integral part of the success of any given lawyer or law firm. Paralegals are well paid for their efforts, and unlike in many other fields, can count on above average earnings and a favorable job market.
