Graphic text: I can say that having a Master's degree on my resume, I actually ended up in 2 different promotions. I was promoted twice since applying for the program and getting accepted and then completing the program. So having that on my resume has definitely helped a lot. So if anything, you know, it's a resume builder.

Graphic text: I have a lot of stuff going on, and the professors have been nothing but wonderful. I've reached out to them every single time. Hey, you know, I got a work training coming up. I'm going to be gone. And Dr. Martin was definitely one who was very wonderful to me, because I had a lot going on with work, and in my personal life, and she was very flexible and very understanding. So it was really awesome. Having these professors who understand that you are an adult. You have a lot going on in your life, and they will help you out, and they will make sure that you succeed. So if you're debating on getting your degree, just go for it. The professors in this program are absolutely wonderful, and they will definitely make sure you for sure succeed.

Graphic text: I knew I wanted to get a Masters program, but I didn't know when I wanted to do it, so I used the first year of my job to kinda give myself time to settle in...And then I started my master's program. I figured why not now? I have the time. I have the flexibility. And my work day definitely does vary from 8 hours to 20 hours really depends on what's going on that week. I'm involved with a lot of our specialty teams here in the Sacramento region.

Text graphic: Everything is going to end in the culminating experience of your applied project. The classes are structured that way on purpose so that way you get experience with writing certain papers. And then you have a class. It's all about research and then you're developing all of these skills. So at the very end you're able to do your applied project and get through it. I think I learned the
most about like my writing skills and how to actually conduct research through that that class.
Overall, I did want to say that it was like a tremendous experience to be in the program--and I actually really missed school.
