| What I liked best about the CTER OnLine program: | I enjoyed that I could work from home (or school). Although we were online and not face-to-face most of the time, we developed friendships and relationships throughout our sharing the experiences. To me, that's the best part. |
| How I managed to fit the coursework into my hectic life: | Lots of credit goes to my study partner, Michele Jacobs. She picked me up when I was down, I tried to do the same for her. We made calendars, lists, set deadlines and worked together a lot. A big part of my getting through was due to the help of my husband, who would give me time and space (take the kids out for a few hours) so that I could get work done. Also, I worked part-time (mostly half-days) during this program. I did a lot of work in the afternoons before my kids got home from school. |
| CTER OnLine has impacted my professional career in the following ways: | I will move across on the pay schedule. This was a great incentive to me as I am starting to think of retirement for my husband and myself, and the extra pay will certainly help. |
| Have you had any major life changes you'd like to share? (marriages, births, new jobs, etc.) | cter is great! |
| My most memorable experience in the CTER OnLine program: | Gosh, this is tough. I'll never forget the day WebBoard crashed and I couldn't cut and paste from AOL. With Michele 'talking me through' on the telephone, I literally typed in my whole presentation - live. When I finished, I burst into tears. I'll also remember - the fun we had making the 'Privacy Video', Patty cracked me up! The tremendous 'stretching', I had to do in the School Law class |
