BAM 2020
The BAM program was created for a nontraditional college student. It鈥檚 designed to
work around your life with flexible online class options. With the support of the
instructors, I was able to work full time, enjoy time exploring 91视频, and still
obtain the education I wanted. I wouldn鈥檛 say the courses are easy, because that is
far from the truth. That being said, the program is designed for you to succeed. Everyone
is on your side and they are rooting for you.
My job requires me to work from Delta Junction, so I was unsure if I would be able
to continue my education. It is a big advantage to have all of the classes online,
allowing me to work anywhere. With an associate鈥檚 degree, and eight years of experience
as an operator, I felt I had topped out in my field. After completing my bachelor鈥檚
degree, I am prepared for the next step in my career. As one of the first BAM graduates,
I have recommended the program to many of my friends and co-workers. The advice I
would give someone who is interested in joining the program is to DO IT! You won鈥檛
regret it.

Current BAM Student
I am not a person who knows 100% what I want to do. What I do know is that I want
to do something that I'm in control of, and for me pursuing a BAM degree is a big
step in that direction. I don鈥檛 have a lot of time for classes, and I wasn鈥檛 sure
if I could fit school in with everything else. It was important for me to find a program
that allowed me to balance work, school, and a social life. The BAM program offers
me the flexibility I need to maintain that balance as I continue my education.
The best part of the BAM program is the real-world experiences you gain from the classes.
The educational structure makes learning enjoyable and you get to apply the concepts
to your career almost immediately. If you are interested in the BAM program, just
go for it! Everyone has your best interest in mind, and because of that you get the
best education for your money.

Current BAM Student
The BAM program gives me the business education that I need to really progress throughout
my career. It has changed my future and now I have job opportunities that weren't
previously available to me. I can take on management jobs that require more supervisory
and management skills. A big part of my success in the program is due to the instructors.
I work rotating shifts and my instructors are willing to adapt to my constantly-changing
schedule. Not only are they willing to help you with coursework, but more than once
I鈥檝e reached out to pick their brains about large projects I am working on at my job.
Being a part of the BAM program has been eye opening and I have learned a ton. I鈥檝e
gained life experiences that I would not have had otherwise. A variety of topics are
covered that not only help me with my job, but also with my personal investing. It鈥檚
rewarding to put my education into immediate action. At work, I've led on a number
of projects, built work proposals, and presented them to upper management. These projects
saved my company roughly $10 million. These types of management skills have set me
up for future success in my career.
