I've been in the shipping industry going into my 25th year this May.
I NEARLY finished 11th grade but fell into an apprenticeship at 18 which I decided was more for me.
I'm worried that our industry, or at least the segment i'm in, will not exist in 10 years time.
I've decided that I will get my GED and then follow up and try to get a degree in Logistics or Business thereafter. I'm essentially a geography (and a ground hog) expert, however looking through prep classes for taking the GED, my excellent skills will not help me one iota.
Does anyone here have experience with going back to school later in life?
I'd appreciate any tips or advice.
