A More Practical Generation


A More Practical Generation

The new generation is becoming more and more practical these days. They know that if they would be practical, it would be easier to land on a job after graduation. I think it’s also because they are aware of the increasing demands for other areas of education like medical assistant courses and other undergraduate courses. But, there are still a lot of them who go for what they like, and basically, most of those are the kids who can afford. But, some are simply taking up their courses because it’s what they dream to become. I think it’s also one of the parent’s responsibilities to educate their kids of the significance of the courses they are planning to take and what are the possible options and opportunities awaits them in the future. If you’ll ask me, If you can’t afford it just yet, I think a medical assistant career is more practical than instead of not sending your kid to school yet and wait til you have money. And definitely more practical than borrowing money and getting into bad debts just to send your kid to a proper medical or engineering school. Check out some medical assistant schools in your place. It might be the better option for now. You can read the entire article at:

Leaving to Become a Medical Assistant
My second cousin Rachel is now enrolled in an online medical assistant school. She used to work in an office, but a friend offered her the chance to work abroad for a much higher compensation than what she is getting now. That is why she took up medical assistant training. She looked for an online school to get her certificate. She told me that online schools are better than traditional schools because she has more flexibility with her schedules. She still has time to look after her three kids and her husband. It's a good thing they live with her parents. Her dad, being retired now, helps in looking after the little ones while the adults are at work, or in her case, studying online.Rachel told me that her friend was working as a medical assistant in a Middle Eastern country. She said that her friend was offering her a position there. I told her not to hesitate and just grab the opportunity with both hands. It's not often that the chance to work abroad comes without having to pay a mini-fortune to a recruitment agency.Her choice to be a medical assistant puzzled me at first. Most people here are studying to be nurses, it is the popular choice. But being a medical assistant, as I read online, is a good option for her. Medical assistants are also healthcare professionals who perform administrative and clinical tasks to keep the offices of other health practitioners running smoothly. The demand for them is on the rise too. And the best thing about her online medical assistant school is that she will earn her certificate in 6 or 8 weeks! That's a very short period of time to wait. Nursing schools usually take at least 2 years to finish.I wished my cousin well in her new job, and promised that I will drop in from time to time on her kids and parents to see how they are doing.
