H. - Montana
Since
receiving my B.A. degree in Communications a year ago, I can attribute one of my
interviews to the fact that I am currently a federal employee, (which gives
someone preference over someone else who is not a federal employee), and all my
other interviews to "who I know", who got me the interview. In the
creative field, there is still the necessity to be able to "show your
stuff", produced by using the industry standards. Read

Before
I heard of Almeda College, I assumed my higher education was OVER! After my
disabling injury that prevented me from driving my own Semi-Truck over the road,
something I had done for over 30 years at the time of my accident plus
maintaining a dual career as a Firefighter for 25 of those years, I decided it
was time to go back and get my College Degree. After all those years of
experience which included driving over 3 Million Miles without an
accident. Read

S. - Massachusetts
Let
me tell you of the confidence and credibility my BS in Facilities Management has
brought me. I work for MIT Lincoln Laboratory in Lexington Ma. My Experience
ranges over 35 years, as some one who has been a on again off again student
attending night or full time classes has been hard. Almeda recognized my life
experience and former education back round as a true representation of my
skills. Read

J.
K. - Texas
I
had thought about going back to school and getting my Masters, but work never
really allowed it. Then the economic collapse began, the company I worked for (I
was Vice President of Services) began experiencing issues with revenue and
customer retention and in a short period of time they closed the regional office
I ran and I was laid off. While this was certainly unnerving it was a blessing
in disguise, as it allowed me. Read

R. - Okalahoma
I
graduated in 2002. My company provided me with the chance to obtain my degree
which in turn has allowed me to increase in wages. I'm now retired, but plan on
using my degree in a new career.
T.
W. - Indiana
I
would like to tell you how my degree from Almeda College has helped me since I
received it. The degree itself has not really helped my current job whatsoever.
However, I have a home-based business as a contract trainer for law enforcement.
Once I started putting on my resume that I was a graduate of Almeda College with
a Major in Criminal Justice, I started to get calls from agencies in other
states to assist them Read

R.
E. - North Carolina
When
I was hired for my current position, my previous industrial research work
was considered as equivalent to a Masters degree, which was permitted under the
rules at that time. A few years after I was hired the requirements for my
position changed, and my bachelors degree alone was no longer acceptable. I was
"grand-fathered" in and kept my position. But despite my having 16
years of experience, publishing two-dozen academic papers. Read

E.
M. - Texas
I
dropped out of school during the 11th grade because we had just intergraded and
it was a little much for me to digest at the time. I had gotten expelled for
fighting with a teacher, so I decided to join the United States Army. While in
the army I went on to complete my GED and soon started taking college course
from a variety of colleges. My M.O.S. Military Occupation Skills was Infantry Read

S. - Colorado
After
several months of unemployment, I was struggling to stay afloat. I am the single
mother of two teenagers and was receiving no child support. I had gone through
everything I had in savings, emptied my small 401K, and was not sure what to do
next. With a heavy heart and a feeling of desperation, I was seriously
considering my children's offer to take what they had in their small savings
accounts. Read

Force for four years. After active duty I have spent the rest of my time in the

time with the military. Read

First
of all I thank you for inviting me to express a few words about myself as an
alumni of Almeda College. At present I am working as Chief Account of a big
advertising group. My MD is very much impressed with my new degree and straight
away he reimbursed me 50% of the course fee. Now a days he is introducing me to
the people as a MBA degree holder. Read

Obtaining
my MBA (in risk management) from Almeda has had a very positive impact on my
career. I already held a Masters in Public Health (MPH) and was the health and
safety coordinator for a moderate-sized public school district (over 1200
employees and 13,000 students) in the suburbs of Atlanta, Georgia. The Almeda
MBA, with the emphasis on the business side of risk management and safety,
unquestionably contributed to my obtaining. Read

C. - Ohio
I
attended a traditional college when I was too young to know what I wanted and
how to get it. The counseling was horribly inadequate and I was trying to please
my family, not myself. By the time I realized my real interest it was too late
and my grades suffered. I used that experience as a building block and for the
next 40 years, applied myself in my music. My accomplishments meet and, in most
cases, exceed those who have numerous degrees from major institutions. Read

K.
S. - Illinois
I
graduated from high school in 1980. At that time I chose to work a full time job
and attend my local community college full time. I graduated, with honors, with
my Associates Degree in Business Administration in 1980. I then transferred to a
local secondary school to complete my next two years of schooling for my
Bachelors Degree. Read

Testimonials
Read what some of our Almuni have to say:

Prior
Learning Assessment degree program gave me the opportunity to better myself,
my business and it gave my clients more confidence in my abilities.
R.B.Y. London, England

After
receiving my degree in Marketing from Almeda, I was rewarded by the company
I work for with a surprise party, an extra week of vacation, and a notification
from our Vice President about my achievement, on which all employees were
copied. When our new fiscal year began, I was awarded a pay raise commensurate
with those already having their degrees. The investment I made with Almeda
College was well worth my time and effort.
M.O., Indiana.

I
am very happy about the degree that I received. Since I do have a lot of
experience but not enough time to attend college the traditional method,
the Almeda program gave me the opportunity to upgrade myself, my business
and gave my clients more confidence in my abilities.
R.Y., United Kingdom

I
received my Bachelor Degree in Health Care Administration this year. By obtaining
my BSHC I am insured job protection should the requirements for my position
be raised from an Associate to Bachelor degree. My career options are much
greater, as I can apply for jobs, if I desire, that require a Baccalaureate
degree. There is no downside to obtaining my BSHC. Thanks Almeda.
B.A.M., Missouri

I
always sent the same questionnaire and so many sites I never heard back from
them. You were very prompt, and answered all my questions. I checked out
your web site, being sure that you were accredited, what further schooling,
and qualifications I would require to finish my degree. I was absolutely
amazed with the quality of your educators, and the simple process I had to
go through to achieve my goals.
J.M.G., Nevada

By
December 2002 I had landed my dream job with a global company, headquartered
in Chicago, that is the leader in their field. I now have a challenging rewarding
career that has many open career paths for me to follow. I love my new job
and I firmly believe that my completion of my degree with Almeda was crucial
in my attaining this rewarding and challenging position.
K.S., Illinois.

My
goal of attaining a degree was realized through Almeda by my past college
courses that I have taken and also my work life experience. When you think
about it, this combination of education and real life workforce experience
is an awesome combination. Taking the knowledge from education and combining
it with the sweat of the brow. Best of both worlds in my opinion.
T.B., Tennessee

I
will be soon retiring from the federal government with my Almeda Master's
degree, work experience, and a really great network of friends around the
world. I expect, as a result of these three factors, to be able to have a
really nice retirement wherever in the world I decide to go.
J.C., Okinawa, Japan.

Many
intuitions utilize accelerated learning, cohort, cluster and other innovated
programs to reach and meet individual student needs. Almeda College's degree
program assessment and verification process utilized my educational and professional
achievements, which included college courses, seminars, workshops, work-study,
and on-the- job training programs. My degree's conferment and award was based
upon evaluations of my accomplishments, many of which have exceeded the content,
format and substance of many traditional degree programs' criteria.
L.J., Southeastern USA.
