			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="article_img" title="Nurse" src="http://www.college-pages.com/images/category/health-care-and-nursing/nurse.jpg" border="0" alt="Nurse" width="120" height="120" />Online schools provide an abundance of opportunities for aspiring healthcare professionals, including almost any administrative or non-medical healthcare career that you can think of. There are some schools that offer online Registered Nursing programs. Both the University of Phoenix Online and Kaplan University offer bachelor of science degrees to individuals who are already working as registered nurses.</p>
<p>There are a number of specialized skills and administrative aspects behind the healthcare industry. A majority of the skills necessary can be obtained through the provisions of online educational institutions. These colleges and universities are certified, and the degrees are authentic. Certifications, as well as bachelor&#8217;s, master&#8217;s, and doctorate&#8217;s degrees can be acquired online in the various disciplines under non-medical healthcare professions.</p>
<p>Kaplan University offers certification programs in case management, forensic nursing, legal nurse consulting, geriatric care management, and life care planning. These programs for registered nurses who need to specialize in order to qualify for a certain position. Kaplan also provides a health care management bachelor&#8217;s degree program.</p>
<p>Case management has to do with health insurance. Individuals in case management are responsible for decisions related to which treatments are covered by insurance, and handing claim disputes. Case managers are also involved in the clinical testing of drugs during pre-release, in the biotech field. There is certainly a growing need for individuals to fill such positions.</p>
<p>Online bachelor&#8217;s and graduate degrees in health administration are available at Kennedy Western University. The University of Phoenix Online offers master&#8217;s programs in nursing and healthcare management, healthcare administration, and business administration with a specialization in healthcare administration. Healthcare management degrees are also offered at Ashworth College, who also offers public health classes.</p>
<p>Anyone interested in working towards a degree in healthcare administration should think about where they want to end up working specifically. Health administration is a broad label, that encompasses a number of different focuses. It will be helpful to decide on a concentration, like clinic management or public health, before embarking on the path to your degree.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="article_img" title="Health Care Nurse" src="http://www.college-pages.com/images/category/health-care-and-nursing/rn-to-bsn.jpg" border="0" alt="Health Care Nurse" width="120" height="130" />Internet-based educational institutions provide a great deal of programs for individuals looking to go into the health care industry.

The various positions for which online certification is available include medical assistant, radiography technician, nurse&#8217;s assistant, medical information technology technician, hospital intake specialist, and several other positions in the field.</p>
<p>Not only are there certification programs, but many online educational institutions offer complete degrees in health care. There are associate&#8217;s, bachelor&#8217;s,  master&#8217;s and doctorate programs that can be obtained on the internet. There degrees may focus on specific areas in the health care field and offer different levels of academic achievement.</p>
<p>Here are a few online colleges or universities that offer such health care related degree programs.</p>
<p>The University of Phoenix Online offer the following programs: Bachelor of Science/Health Administration Bachelor of Science in Nursing Master of Business Administration/Health Care Management Master of Health Administration Master of Science in Nursing Master of Science in Nursing &#8211; Nursing/Health Care Education Master of Science in Nursing/Integrative Health Care Master of Science in Nursing/Master of Business Administration/Health Care Management Master of Science in Nursing/Master of Health Administration Doctor of Health Administration.</p>
<p>Naturally, not all of these programs will require the same amount of time to complete. Online degrees are tailored to adults who are currently working full-time. The University of Phoenix Online utilizes intensive teaching methods that significantly reduce the amount of &#8220;class time&#8221; required.</p>
<p>Capella University also offers online degree programs, including a master&#8217;s in human services with specialization in health care administration. Other master&#8217;s degree programs that Capella University offers are master&#8217;s of science in clinical psychology, counseling  psychology, school psychology and sports psychology.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="article_img" title="Technology Team" src="http://www.college-pages.com/images/category/engineering-and-technology/engineer-team.jpg" border="0" alt="Technology Team" width="120" height="120" />Computer technology can be roughly divided into two academic areas: computer science and information technology.</p>
<p>Computer science is the physics, chemistry and mathematics behind chip design,  computer design, and the functionality of all the pieces of hardware in the  industry. Fiber optics and network router design are parts of computer science.  In many universities, computer science majors are housed in the electrical  engineering department, where the science began.</p>
<p>Information technology (IT) is often a separate field of study. The academic  subdivisions of IT include:  Networking. Database design. Maintenance and security. Software design. Computer programming.</p>
<p>Universities and colleges often offer information technology degrees with  areas of concentration such as database design.</p>
<p>Technical schools do provide some technology certification programs in such  areas as network maintenance and system security. More often, however, these  operational jobs are taught at the level of an associate&#8217;s college degree.</p>
<p>Online  colleges provide degrees in computer technology that cover both areas of  study. University of Phoenix Online has a fairly inclusive  bachelor&#8217;s degree program in IT. Their technology school offers the following  degrees:  Associate of Arts in Information  Technology. Associate of Arts in Information  Technology/Networking. Associate of Arts in Information  Technology/Visual Communication. Bachelor of Science in Business/ e-Business. Bachelor of Science in Business/Information  Systems. Bachelor of Science in Information  Technology. Bachelor of Science in Information  Technology/Information System Security. Bachelor of Science in Information  Technology/Visual Communications. Master of Business Administration/Technology  Management. Master of Information Systems. Doctor of Management/Information Systems and  Technology.</p>
<p>University of Phoenix wraps many of their IT majors into business degree  programs. They do not offer courses in the area of computer science.</p>
<p>Colorado Technical University has an online program  that qualifies as a computer school of its own. They offer a Bachelor of Science in Software Systems  Engineering that combines electrical engineering with the integrative  techniques used in computer design. It&#8217;s an interesting mix of academic focal  points:  Fundamentals of Computer Programming. Electrical Engineering Techniques. Database Design and Management. Software Engineering.</p>
<p>Another online computer school is CDI  College, which provides training programs in IT that prepare students for  certification. Their scholastic selections include nine networking courses of  study, including one designed to meet certification for Cisco network products  and designs. They have five choices in the Programmer/Developer area, two of  which are focused on the Web. CDI College also has a number of certification  training programs. For software, they offer courses for business applications  specialist and Microsoft Office specialist. CDI teaches certification courses for  computer programmers and office information technology specialists, as well.</p>
<p>These are three online colleges with distinctly different types of curricula. CDI  can make you a certified tech in a matter of several months. Colorado Technical  University has degrees available in computer science and in software development.  University of Phoenix focuses on the business side of IT. These are only three  examples: a little research will find you the online tech school that you need if you  haven&#8217;t found it here.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="article_img" title="Computers and Electronics" src="http://www.college-pages.com/images/category/engineering-and-technology/computers-and-electronics.jpg" border="0" alt="Computers and Electronics" width="120" height="130" />There is a difference between technical schools and colleges and schools of  technology. Technical schools are training centers that will prepare you for  every career from auto mechanic, to food marketing, to truck driver. You may find  a few technology-oriented careers available at a technical school &#8211; such as  software programming &#8211; or you may not. Technology colleges and schools are either  institutions that offer courses for technology-oriented jobs (i.e., computer  network maintenance), or they offer full college degrees in information  technology and computer science fields, or they  offer both.</p>
<p>CDI College is an example of an online  college that offers certification training. They have a technology  division with nine different academic choices for certification in the field of  networking. They have five academic choices in the programmer/developer area, all  of which are oriented to website development and maintenance.</p>
<p>University of Phoenix Online offers a variety of technology  degrees, ranging from an Associate of Arts in Information Technology  to a Doctor of Management in Information Systems and  Technology. Their bachelor&#8217;s programs include the following:  BS in Business/Information Systems. BS in Business/e-Business. BS in Information Technology. BS in Information Technology/Information System  Security. BS in Information Technology/Visual  Communications.</p>
<p>University of Phoenix also offers two master&#8217;s degrees, including:  MBA/Technology Management. MIS &#8211; Master of Information  Systems.</p>
<p>Capella  University offers a variety of online information technology degrees,  including the following:  BS in Information Technology &#8211; General. BS in IT &#8211; Graphics and Multimedia. BS in IT &#8211; Information Assurance and  Security. BS in IT &#8211; Network Technology. BS in IT &#8211; Web Application Development. MBA &#8211; Information Technology Management. MS in IT &#8211; General Information  Technology. MS in IT &#8211; Network Architecture and  Design. MS in IT &#8211; Information Security. MS in IT &#8211; System Design and  Programming.</p>
<p>Kaplan  University has 6 online bachelor&#8217;s degree programs in the IT academic  area. Specializations include:   Database.  Multimedia and animation. Networking. Programming. Web development.</p>
<p>Their associate&#8217;s degrees in the IT field are all in information systems and  include specializations in Java, networking, web development, and wireless  networking.</p>
<p>Four online technology colleges, all with different levels of degrees and  academic specializations. You can find certification programs and associate&#8217;s  degree programs in technology fields of study at most public community colleges.  Four-year colleges and universities will also have technology studies. Many of  the universities have comprehensive schools of computer science that have grown  out of their electrical engineering departments.</p>
<p>You can find some esoteric specialties in some of the larger universities, in  such areas as computer languages, database design and artificial intelligence. Those sorts of institutions are best suited for those with time and dedication to  pursue full four- or five-year courses of study. If you are interested in  breaking into the technology field and need a certificate or a college degree to  do it &#8211; while you are working &#8211; then you should consider the online option.</p>
<p>These schools are accredited, well established, and one of them is going to have  the degree in the academic focal area that you want. Online technology degrees also, typically,  take less time.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="article_img" title="Technology Man" src="http://www.college-pages.com/images/category/engineering-and-technology/engineer-man.jpg" border="0" alt="Technology Man" width="120" height="120" />Careers in technology can be found at every professional level and, today, you  can find courses taught for every type of job. For purposes of discussion, it  helps to divide the field of technology into two roughly drawn areas: computer  science and information technology.</p>
<p>Computer science is the study of  technology&#8217;s hardware: what the component parts are, how the parts are built, and  how the parts work. This can apply as much to a network router as it applies to a  computer. Information technology deals with the  use of the computer&#8217;s output: digital data in an assortment of formats. Thus,  information technology (IT) includes the functions of the Internet, computer  networks, software design, database security, and so forth.</p>
<p>Colleges and  universities have developed curricula for many subdivisions of these two  broad areas. Degree levels ranging from an associate&#8217;s to a doctorate can be  found for computer science, information technology and related fields of study.  About 40% of America&#8217;s colleges and universities offer some form of extension  learning or online education  program, and there are many colleges that function solely online as well.  So, availability for technology schools is widespread &#8211; local  community colleges, universities, or online schools all have technology programs.</p>
<p>There are courses of study for jobs in technology that do not lead a college  diploma. 9- to 18-month programs that result in certification for the student can  be found in areas such as network maintenance, office software, computer  maintenance and other technical support positions. Examples of these types of  certificates can be found at CDI College:  CISCO Certified Network Administrator. Network Administrator. Network and Internet Security Specialist. Network and Internet Support Specialist. Network Support Specialist. Programmer/Network Support Analyst. Computer Programmer/Web Developer. Programmer Analyst/Internet Solutions Developer. Programmer Analyst/Web Developer. Computer Business Applications Specialist. Computer Programmer.</p>
<p>While CDI focuses on certification programs, Capella  University is an online college at the other end of the educational  spectrum, offering four master of science degree programs in information  technology:  MS in IT &#8211; General Information  Technology. MS in IT &#8211; Information Security. MS in IT &#8211; Network Architecture and  Design. MS in IT &#8211; System Design and  Programming.</p>
<p>Kaplan University fills in the middle ground with 6  associate&#8217;s degrees and 6 bachelor&#8217;s degrees in information technology. Among  their fields of specialization are the following:  AAS in Computer Information Systems. AASCIS/Java. AASCIS/Networking. AASCIS/Programming. AASCIS/Wireless Networking. BS in Information Technology. BSIT/Database. BSIT/Multimedia and Animation. BSIT/Networking. BSIT/Programming. BSIT/Web Development.</p>
<p>Generally, online technology degrees will take less  time to complete than those offered at a traditional university or college. If  you have college credits from previous experience, some of them may be  transferable. An associate&#8217;s degree can take as little as 13 months and, a  bachelor&#8217;s, 2 to 3 years.</p>
<p>The range of educational options and professional opportunities is wide and  getting wider all the time. Credentialing programs are becoming very specific,  with online training  programs available in certain computer languages or code writing. College  degrees are also being developed that focus on an increasing number of  specialties, such as microelectronics and fiber optic networking. There is an  option to match almost any level of initiative and area of interest.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img border="0" width="120" src="http://www.college-pages.com/images/category/vocational-and-trade/construction-management.jpg" alt="construction management" height="130" title="construction management" class="article_img" />For people interested in beginning a career in a skilled vocational or trade position, distance learning is a great place to start.  In some cases- particularly the building trades &#8211; the old system of apprenticeship is still used. Regardless, in order to become a licensed electrician or plumber, some vocational training is still needed. If vocational education is not available through on-the-job training, it can certainly be found through an online vocational college.</p>
<p>There are vocational schools and technical trade schools offering HVAC certification, for auto repair technicians, and for the traditional trades such as locksmithing, jewelry repair, and electronics technician. These are professions where much of what is learned is done so through on the job training and requires job experience.  However, if you have earned a vocational certification, you will have the basic education that is needed to get a job opportunity in the field. </p>
<p>Certified online training programs are being provided by technical trade schools in an array of professional areas; from hospitality to bookkeeping to child care. Whatever vocational career that interests you most, earning a degree from an online school will get you started there. You can add to that training through online trade schools as time goes on. Many people who begin a career at the entry level earn levels of education as they become more experienced and grow in their job. For instance, you can take an online certification program in the paralegal field and then work your way into a law firm. Once you&#8217;re working, you can get an online degree in paralegal studies that will combine with your experience to make you a valued member of the office legal team. Other people have begun paralegal careers with an online certificate as a legal secretary, and build from there.</p>
