She needed an online program that provided her with the flexibility to study while balancing a demanding job and raising four kids. Athabasca University was the perfect fit, allowing Jackie to turn pretty much every setting (including ringside at her kid’s hockey games) into a classroom. We talk about....

• Loving your work, but knowing you need to upgrade your skills to take on more responsibilities
• Why online learning was the perfect option for Jackie's busy life and independent personality
• How Jackie "triaged" family, work and school to complete her degree
• Advice for those thinking about similar journeys
• Jackie's great new job that leverages her past skills and new credentials

A huge THANKS to our season sponsors, Athabasca University, Canada's online university.
