The Recession has put a lot of people out of work and onto the streets begging for any job with a pay check, and those who are just finishing school are competing against adults with 15, 20, 30 years experience, and those with experience are competing with young hungry 20 somethings. It might be time for those who have the experience, but not the most up to date education come back to the classroom to renew their skills.
Returning Learners is a site that provides the best tips about going back to school. The site is a resource for how to and what teachers are looking for in research papers, the best way to take notes, how to use technology in your presentations, and how to manage your time when juggling work, school, and a household. For those who never thought they would return to a classroom, this site is a good tool to use when you are feeling a little less confident in your quest to update a skill, learn a new trade, or get more acclimated with technology.
