Baby Boomers Hitting the Books
Did you know that someone retiring at the age of 65 is now likely to live past 80? What are people doing with their time? Anna D. Banks, a writer for the American Chronicle says that there are thousands of learners all over the world who find that going back to college to earn a degree or continue their business education is an exciting way to spend their time after a career and years of raising kids.
With the changing job market and Baby Boomers putting off retirement, going back to college just makes sense. Many returning adult students are enrolling in vocational courses, management training, computer applications and technical seminars.

I know for me the idea of going back to school was a bit overwhelming. But once I looked into the continuing education program at my local community college, it was not as hard as it seems! I am currently taking advantage of their online courses which allow me plenty of time to learn and go at my own pace. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking to challenge themselves or grow in their careers.
