Bored of your job? Does it seem you just sit at your desk all day long without anything too interesting to do? Well then maybe you\u2019d should start thinking about enrolling with an online degree program and get a fresh start in life.<\/p>\n

Why aren\u2019t we suggesting an on-campus alternative instead? Well because, you\u2019ll probably want to keep your job while studying with your college degree online (face it, you\u2019ll need the money, they aren\u2019t free) and you won\u2019t have the necessary time.<\/p>\n

An online degree program means you can study from home and when it\u2019s more convenient for you. So you\u2019ll be able to juggle both your old life and the new one. Not to mention that with an online degree program you don\u2019t have to pay extra money associated with room and board and travel expenses, which is a very big plus.<\/p>\n

Ok, so let\u2019s say you\u2019ve decided to jump onboard with online education. The next question is \u2013 what are you to study? Obviously there are plenty of options to choose from and it all depends on your skills, talents and interests.<\/p>\n

But we can offer an idea \u2013 major in court reporting. Court what? A court reporter is also called the court stenographer is a person whose occupation is to transcribe spoken or recorded speech into written form. So if you think you have a knack for deciphering human speech regardless of accent or regional tone, then this job might be exactly what you seek.<\/p>\n

Graduates of a court reporting degree are educated for interesting and challenging positions of responsibility and trust as official, freelance or legislative reporters. And the good news is that you don\u2019t have to enroll into a four-year program (bachelor) in order to become a court reporter. An associate degree is more than enough. It\u2019s also a lot cheaper. But that doesn\u2019t mean you won\u2019t need help paying for college.<\/p>\n
