About Fast Degrees

by Randy Lemken

Have you ever been overlooked for a promotion because you don’t have a college degree, even though you are fully-qualified and have more practical knowledge and experience than a college graduate? Or perhaps you want to speed your way up the corporate ladder or qualify for a new career? You are not alone!

Thousands of adult learners are heading back to college to earn their degree… but they do not want to spend 4 years or more in classes. This book contains a wealth information I’ve gathered as a result of my own personal experiences. A few years ago, I realized my career was going nowhere, so I enrolled in night classes at a local university. After spending one year in night classes, I only had 12 credit hours (4 classes) under my belt. It didn’t take me long to do the math. At that pace, it would take me nearly 10 years to complete my degree! With a full-time career, bills to pay, and family commitments, it would likely take me even longer.

Needless to say, I started searching for alternative ways to earn my degree at a faster pace… and I found quite a few! I’m now the proud owner of a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration (from a regionally-accredited university) and it didn’t take me 10 years to finish either!

Over the past couple of years, I’ve shared my story with family, friends, and co-workers, and it wasn’t long before I discovered that many people are in the same boat. They are working full-time, supporting a family, and trying to make a better life for themselves. They don’t have time to go back to school the “traditional way”, spending evenings and Saturdays sitting in class. But they do need to earn an accredited degree to achieve their goals.

And that’s where this website comes in…
