Education Now, Success Later

One of the best indicators of success in life is the level of education a person has. Unfortunately many people don't have access to quality education opportunities. Providing education for moms is one way to help them and their children. Awarding school grants to eager mothers is one way to improve the landscape of educational opportunities. The Obama-approved program began in 2009 as a way to help send stay-at-home and working moms back to school. Administrators of the program can award as much as $5,000 of the need-based Pell Grant to a worthy mom. The $5,000 can go toward paying for tuition and books or for childcare during class hours. Hopefully this lack of undue restrictions helps moms realize the opportunities available to them. The areas of study which are acceptable is another area of openness. College and university majors of all kinds are open and available to study. Science, industry, arts and literature and history are just some of the areas of interest that many people hope can lead to a fulfilling career. Sometimes unexpected doors are opened, but being prepared means that you'll be ready to step through them. Although scholarships for moms provide a place to start, for many people it is difficult to know where that education will lead them. There are many online resources that can help with career research. The Occupational Outlook Handbook is one trusted resource. This guide by the US Department of Labor analyzes the current trends of employment in a number of sectors. These industry projections are done on a 10-year scale. CareerOneStop is another resource by the Department of Labor, and it can provide information about necessary training, average salary and projected growth for different jobs. Professional networking sites can also give you access to important job information. Finding trends among the information can often give a clear picture of what is available in the job market. Higher education is probably even more important in troubled economic times. In fact, now is a great time to earn a degree to prepare for the demands that will rise. The Scholarships for Moms program can help ensure that mothers are in a better position financially in the coming years.
