This guest post comes from Connor G. as he discusses online degree programs related to finance.
Breaking into the financial industry can seem daunting. A popular saying goes, it comes down to who you know, not what you know. While this holds some weight, the knowledge you have about finance is extremely important to finding a job in the industry. If you live a busy life or don’t have the resources available to make a big move, you may want to look into studying finance online. The top online finance schools are accredited by the U.S. Department of Education. This accreditation takes into account a school’s history, the quality of teachers they provide, the quality of their masters in finance online programs, and any distinguished alumni that may have attended. Choosing to attend accredited online finance schools is a big step. It is best to take your time and do as much research as possible before deciding where to attend.
