I'm thinking of a career change, looking for some online schooling from a recongnized school that offers online diploma or degrees in canada. Any help? thanks
I don't think it would be wise to obtain a diploma online, the value of it would be most likely be very limited. Instead, considering going to a local college such as humber or centennial.
Before doing anything, I recommend going through a personality profile analysis or career counselor. Search around. Some of them are scams; but look for the good ones. It will involve some freaky psycho BS about soul searching, but that's just part of it. I believe the Meyer-Briggs technique is the current standard used to determine what jobs are best suited to your personality.
IMHO, most people, including myself, aren't 100% happy with their jobs. In order to truly go from rags to riches, you need to find a way to make money doing something you truly enjoy. "Would you do your job if you didn't get paid?" is the question you should ask to see if you're happy. Most people can't say YES to that question; that's life.
And that's the challenge; doing something that you truly love and getting paid for it. Don't obsess over degrees and certificates. Be able to answer the question "What do you want?"
