Focus Statement
When a giraffe looks down, it sees two feet, but yet it has four... I also see two feet, but do I have more? Questioning simple facts and assumptions is necessary to be able to think outside of the box.

Future
Degree:
School: Athabasca University
Location:
Goal Date: Short Term - Less Than a Year
Description: This is a 60-credit diploma that I will enroll into once I finish my Certificate of Public Administration. I already have 57 of the required credits so I should get it rather quickly.
Degree:
School: Athabasca University
Location:
Goal Date: Short Term - Less Than a Year
Description: As this will be my first bachelor's degree, I will be able to transfer all of my credits from those programs into this one. I already have all the required credits and am just waiting to finish my current certificate.
Degree:
School: Athabasca University
Location:
Goal Date: Short Term - Less Than a Year
Description: I'm undecided whether to get this certificate before or after my degree. I'm leaning towards getting it before my degree though since I'm already delaying getting my degree to get my diploma (due to transfer credit restrictions)
Degree:
School: Athabasca University
Location:
Goal Date: Medium Term - One to Three Years
Description: This is a 4-year degree with a major in Marketing. As a second undergraduate degree I will have to complete 60 new credits toward this program. This degree really interests me and I would like to finish it before I start working full-time, but I don't know if that will happen. This is still further in the future and I have time to decide.
Degree:
School: Royal Military College of Canada
Location:
Goal Date: Short Term - Less Than a Year
Description: This is a 7-course officer development program offered by the Canadian Forces aimed at officer professional development. I hope to start it in the summer of 2013.
Degree:
School: Athabasca University
Location:
Goal Date: Long Term - More Than Three Years
Description: This is a 3-year, 90 credit program. As a third undergraduate degree I would have to apply 45 new credits to this program. I should be able to transfer some military credits into this program, but I should be working full-time while finishing this degree so I will be taking it slow.
