She says ASC students are the best part of her job. “I like getting to know them and it makes me super happy when they get jobs they're excited about. If I can have any impact on them, and maybe they're more successful because of something they learned in one of my classes, I'm happy about that.”
Check with your employer about any available continuing education funds to help valued workers build new career skills. Employers have difficulty filling many positions because of a lack of qualified workers so they are motivated to develop more talented staff. Providing these benefits strengthens the bottom line of the business.
