Online Schooling

Well, you will have abut 10 hrs a day to hop on the laptop..it depends on the amount of class work you would have to do I guess and how much sleep you willing to sacrifice LOL

My wifey does online classes and I really can't see her doing it on the road since she still has to occasionally take tests in school and when she needs help with something it is much easier to go into someplace where others are studying the same thing.

 

Zoltan, I'm attending online courses through SNHU's undergraduate programs, and absolutely love it! That said, I don't think I would reccommend it for OTR drivers, just because my school has attendence requirements that would be all but impossible some weeks, due to spotty internet service.

However, if you can find a way around the internet connection problem, go for it! With the way trucking is going these days, you may need that master's degree to provide a source of income down the road.

 

mmm.....yes and no..a good air card as well as wifi in rest areas and truck stops will keep you covered for the most part...then there's always a starbucks somewhere or something similar as well as public hot spots..just got to plan around it so you are within range at least once a day..my ex wife rode with me on occasion when I drove..going to school..she never missed a day.

an hour during the day while the truckstop parking lot is empty is a pretty good connection usually LOL

You've got a plan and thats better than most..best of luck.

Drivers getting business degrees isn't a bad idea in some sort of business management..especially if they want to make the jump to owner operator or independent owner operator down the road.

Its not a required..but when going t get that truck note ad you have a business plan to show the bank ad all the i's are dotted and t's crossed with profit and loss margins etc..they are impressed..you still may not get the loan for the truck but they are still impressed LOL
