As of late I've been researching what kind of a degree I want, since, as of right now, I don't plan on staying longer then I signed up for in the military (possibly getting out sooner with a program that switches you over to reserves). On to my point, I've always been fascinated with computers, since I was a kid I've been dealing with them. The majority of my time hasn't been dealing with the "technical" side, however, when troubleshooting or what not, I'm a quick learner and can usually fix any issues. During my research of career possibilities within the field, I came across how, with just an Associate's, you "can" (and I emphasize the "quotes for good reason) start out making around 60 grand. Now I can bet it's on average lower, and probably time consuming getting a job but I can't think of anything else I could see myself doing for careerwise. I figured, with time, I could start off with an Associate's in IT, get a job, and further my education while working in hopes of achieving a Bachelor's down the line. Do any members have degrees, certificiates, or any experience with this kind of job? I'm just looking for some feedback from "real" people with real experience, rather then what the bland explanation most online colleges give you for the job.
