 1. As a nurse with an associate’s degree it may seem that options in the job market are limited, but I don’t feel that is true. I have seen nurses become managers with an associate’s degree and other leadership roles like charge nurse and precepting new nurses. One would say my options are limited because of my educational level but I also don’t have the desire to be in leadership 2. I am only interested in pursuing my Bachelor's degree (BSN), at first, I was only doing it because my job said we needed to have it, now that I have started classes, I have enjoyed what I am learning. I am content and more interested in getting certifications in my specialty like CEN (Certified Emergency Nurse) and completing CEU’s (continuing education modules for credit).
