Last Newsletter of the Decade!


Happy New Year!That's right, folks — the first decade of the millennium is over! Isn't it incredible? I'm a little embarrassed to admit this, but I remember ringing in the year 2000 with a flashlight in hand just in case any of the Y2K Doomsday predictions came to pass. Hard to believe that was 10 years ago already...

So what's happened in those ten years? Let's see. I got a bachelor's in communications. Almost got married. Moved from Miami to New Jersey (and have been cold ever since). Worked five great jobs that tested me and forced me to confront what it is I truly want to do. It's been 10 years of change and growth, with some definite accomplishments along the way.

How do you want your next 10 years to go? What do you want to be able to say about yourself on December 29, 2020? Start now at making the next 10 full of good things — accomplishments, positive career moves, health, and happiness.

And in that vein, this bunch of degrees organized by subject will get you started. We at eLearners wish you a prosperous, healthy and happy new year!
