Personal Development

Were you unable to find another job after a layoff because you lacked credentials?

Have you found yourself alone with a lot of free time after your children left home?

Did life force you to start working early and drop any attempt to get a degree?

Then you’re probably one of the many Americans aged 50+ who regret not getting a higher education.

According to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and the Association of American Colleges and Universities, a worker with a bachelor's degree earns $22k more than one with a high school diploma, and 60% of Americans think a college degree is worthwhile.

Now is the time for you to complete that degree you left, change the major you’re unhappy with, or acquire the credentials for non-degree skills.

This is true if learning is not only a matter of employment but also one of personal satisfaction.

You may have some concerns when going back to school: technology, finance, flexibility, academics…

In this guide, all your worries will be eased.

You will be updated on the advances and options in education and non-standard learning for those over 50, covering every practicality you’ll have to deal with.

In Education Past 50, here is just a fraction of what you will discover:

• The increasing value of growing older as 60 is becoming the new 30 • The changes to expect after 50 – and tips to stay in good physical, emotional, and mental health • How to harvest the changes in education to earn free, fun, and empowering knowledge • How to manage your finances and get academic support for 50+ learners • Changes in the job market that give an advantage and how to open your own business • The ‘Life Progress’ plan tailored for you – educate yourself for career improvement, retirement preparation, and personal growth

Whether you’re aiming for professional progress or self-development, this guide is exactly what you need.
