 (ARA) - Four years ago, Erika Williams never would have guessed she would be starting a career in accounting. She was single, didn't have a college degree and was struggling to make a living for herself and her four children at a dead-end call center job. Even with putting in additional hours of overtime, she still could not make ends meet.
"I would come home frustrated by my job every day," Williams recalls. "I was not a pleasant person to be around." That's when a friend told her about online degrees. "She told me about how she could study at home when her kids were sleeping," Williams says, "I thought, if she can do it, why not me?"
Williams is one of a growing number of working mothers studying online to improve their careers. These busy women are finding it easier to get the information they need by visiting a free information site like ClassesandCareers.com. There, they can request information and get materials tailored to the degrees of their choice.
"The online schools did a wonderful job of telling me tuition costs, degree requirements, and financial aid availability," Williams says. "They answered every question until I had all the information I needed to make my decision."
Williams enrolled in an online accounting program. She worked during the day, came home, put her children to bed, and participated in classes from her PC. Four years later, Williams is receiving a Bachelor of Science in accounting and already has a handful of job offers. She's all smiles as she admits, "I've already given my boss my two-week's notice, and that sure felt good."
Williams recommends that other working moms give online education a try. "Go online, fill out a form, and get the information you need to make your choice. Then just do it. It was worth studying into the night to provide a better life for my kids," she says.
The following top online universities offer flexible, quick and well-respected online degree programs for working moms.
