I decided to pursue a degree through ProSTAR because the program included online and classroom experience. This was vital for me because I work full-time and could only attend classes on the weekends.
I hypothesized more education would provide yet additional opportunities that might not normally otherwise be available; a differentiator if you will. This, as it turned out, proved true.
