Adalice Burgos vowed it would never happen again: She had been looking to go into the IT field, but she missed out on a job because she didn’t have a college education.
Raising twin boys and working, Burgos, like many adults, chose to go back to school online so she could progress at her own pace. She began her pursuit of an associate degree through World Campus in 2015.
Burgos reached her first marker of success in 2019, when she graduated with an associate degree in information sciences and technology. She continued with her schooling, seeking a bachelor’s degree, and in 2020, she got a job in the IT field, as a system administrator associate with Penn State Health.
Burgos just finished her journey in August, graduating with a bachelor’s degree in security and risk analysis. The success she has experienced along the way has translated into a profound sense of confidence.
Check out this video in which she talks about her experience and her confidence.
