“I am currently a Center Manager over three imaging centers, supervising 20 employees. I had been overlooked for this position for years, but when my new supervisor heard I was pursuing my bachelor’s she noticed my value and promoted me. Many of my courses, like those on ethics and compliance, have been very helpful in my administrative role.
