However, just bear in mind that you are not alone in wanting to start your computer programmer career by studying at home in your spare time. Actually a significant proportion of computer programmers are self taught. What everyone who has started a programming career outside the confines of college have in common is that they all focused on becoming as good as or even better than those who attended college. If they felt dis-advantaged in the beginning, they ignored that and focused on sharpening their technical skills until they became expert, highly skilled and competent programmers.

Do Employers Value A Computer Science Degree Over Raw Programming Talent?

Now, let’s get one thing clear. Yes, there are several careers where your formal education or college degree will literally make or break your career. There are also several high paying careers where it’s illegal to practice without going through a formal education and training system. However, computer programming is not like that at all. Computer programmers come from all works of life and all levels of education. There are computer programmers with PhDs and there are computer programmers with a high school diploma. There are computer programmers with backgrounds in arts, literature, music, law and even medicine. However, the one thing that programmers have in common is the ability to write program code using a programming language. This means that successful computer programmers have mastered the art of writing good quality code. So, whether you plan to study and become a computer programmer at home or get trained or enroll in a home study course or go to college, make it your goal to be the best software developer you can possibly be.  Read more...

How can someone just out of high school and with no money get the needed education to own his or her own restaurant? It will take time, much hard work and a lot of patience. Here are some ideas to get the budding entrepreneur heading in the right direction.

First, and most obvious, work in a restaurant. Find employment in the kind of style of cooking that interests you. You aren’t going to hire in as a chef, but as a prep cook or salad person, for example. If the company is a chain, and has a paid training program, all the better. Whenever the employer pays for further training for you, NEVER turn it down. This is free, current education handed to you on a silver platter. Don’t only attend, but give the training all the focus and drive you have. Not only will you learn, but you are setting yourself up for a routine of excellence in behavior, habits and workmanship. Learn the equipment, techniques in food preparation and whatever else you can. Watch and learn everything you can absorb. This will drive you further up the ladder of success by going beyond what is required of you and giving a little extra.  Read more...
