You must pass a test certifying you to become a pharmacy technician. The PTCB test or the ExCPT, you do not have to attend any class, classes usually only prep you for the test.

Although employers really do not require special education for a pharmacy technician, still there are numerous schools and colleges that offer training program to acquire the skills needed to become an effective pharmacy technician. In addition, a certification is a plus factor just to get a high paying job as a pharmacy technician. You can also opt for online pharmacy technician classes for your certification as there are now a lot of approved providers for this courses. You just have to check with your state board if they accept such credits.

It typically takes four semesters which are usually spread out over a two year period to get an associate's in business management. That time frame would be for a full time student and would take longer if only attending school part time.

A bachelors degree is typically a four year program. During this time, your are considered an undergraduate. If you want to obtain your master or PhD then you must go to graduate school. Most universities offer undergraduate and graduate programs.

A perfectly elastic demand is one whos demand curve is a perfectly horizontal line. This means that at the same price for the item, the consumer is willing to buy more and more even at that same price.

It depends on whether you are in a two year or four year college or university. Typically, community colleges require no math other than pharmacology. Four year institutions may require a college algebra, and a statistics course. Pharmacology may be taught as either a stand alone math course, or included within the professional phase nursing courses.

according to the July 2008 state board of Cosmetic art examiners in the state of NC: "qualifications for licensing cosmetologists... successful completion of at least 1500 hours of cosmetology curriculum in an approved cosmetic art school, OR at least 1200 hours of a cosmetology curriculum in an approved cosmetic arts school AND completion of an apprenticeship for a period of at least six months under the direct supervision of a cosmetologist..." In NC the cosmetology license is all encompassing and includes hair, nails and skin/make-up.

To answer this question simply, the type of degree you have, where you live, the experience you have, all are factors to how much you will be paid in the beginning, however, on the average, for a person with an associates degree in accounting, the pay is usually between $20 - 40K a year.

Good communication skills and pleasing personality probably the face.

It depends what you want to report on but all around you need a good personality good speaking skills and a pretty face

I believe it depends on the firm that hires you. They may offer some financial assistance for you to return to school for your bachelors. Should you get a job, make sure you find out ALL of the options they offer, if any.

It depends on the school you go to. My total is $22,000. Some schools will cost more than others. You should ask someone at the school your interested in and shop around for what you think would be the best school and best prices.

If you already have a bachelors degree, you might want to think about taking your RN program through a community college. Although, you have a bachelors degree, you will still be required to complete the non- clinical course work particular to the RN program - if you have not already done so - to include the following.

* Anatomy & Physiology I * Anatomy & Physiology II * Microbiology * Chemistry for Allied Health * General Psychology * Child Psychology Each college may be slightly different in terms of curriculum requirements, however the above is generally standardized. I am assuming your other course work such as English composition, humanities, sociology, etc. will be transferred from you four year institution. It is strongly recommended that you complete all the critical science courses first before going on to the professional phase course work in nursing. I say this because the RN program is very intensive. If you couple other courses with your professional phase courses it will be that much harder to realize successful out-comes.

Now, the time it will take you to complete the program may vary depending on how much of the above has already been satisfied. Once you reach the professional phase of the program it can take approximately two years, unless the college offers an accelerate program in which case it may take a year and a half to complete.

First, the associate's in nursing is typically an associate's of science degree (AS). It is designed as a two year program of study once the student enters the professional phase nursing courses. There are some community colleges that do offer an AS in nursing. Courses included - in general - are as follows. * Human Anatomy and Physiology I and II * Microbiology * Chemistry (inorganic and organic and biochemistry) * English Composition I and II * General Psychology * Principles of Sociology * Humanities Electives The above are general education requirements. The professional phase courses are: * Nursing I * Nursing II * Nursing III * Nursing IV Each college may have its own curriculum layout. In addition, nursing programs today are somewhat competitive. You should contact the community college and request information on their admissions requirements. Start with your home county community college. If they do not offer the program, then check with the surrounding counties.

In addition, the cost of a nursing program is expensive compared to other associate degree programs. It is not the tuition as such, but the clinical fees that brings the cost up. Make sure you have your finances in order, and make sure you apply for financial aid assistance if needed.

Lastly, many individuals are going into nursing programs today. In comparison, only a few graduate because of the intensity of the clinical phase. The reason is that they take too much of a credit load. For example, one community college I know of combines Nursing I with Human Anatomy and Physiology II in the same semester. This is too much for most students. I would strongly recommend you complete all of your critical science courses first, and as much of the other general education courses as possible before going on to your professional phase nursing coursework. When you start the nursing courses, you want to concentrate on nursing, and just nursing. This will give you a better chance of completing the program in good form.

The following is written by and according to the U.S. Department of Labor and particular to the education and training required for special education teachers.

All States require special education teachers to be licensed, which typically requires at least a bachelor's degree and completion of an approved training program in special education teaching. Many States require a master's degree. Most States have alternative methods for entry for bachelor's degree holders who do not have training in education.

Education and training. Many colleges and universities across the United States offer programs in special education at the undergraduate, master's, and doctoral degree levels. Special education teachers usually undergo longer periods of training than do general education teachers. Most bachelor's degree programs last years and include general and specialized courses in special education. However, an increasing number of institutions require a 5th year or other graduate-level preparation. Among the courses offered are educational psychology, legal issues of special education, child growth and development, and strategies for teaching students with disabilities. Some programs require specialization, while others offer generalized special education degrees or a course of study in several specialized areas. The last year of the program usually is spent student teaching in a classroom supervised by a certified teacher.

Licensure. All 50 States and the District of Columbia require special education teachers to be licensed. The State board of education or a licensure advisory committee usually grants licenses, and licensure varies by State. In some States, special education teachers receive a general education credential to teach kindergarten through grade 12. These teachers then train in a specialty, such as learning disabilities or behavioral disorders. Many States offer general special education licenses across a variety of disability categories, while others license several different specialties within special education.
For traditional licensing, all States require a bachelor's degree and the completion of an approved teacher preparation program with a prescribed number of subject and education credits and supervised practice teaching. However, many States also require a master's degree in special education, involving at least 1 year of additional course work, including a specialization, beyond the bachelor's degree. Often a prospective teacher must pass a professional assessment test as well. Some States have reciprocity agreements allowing special education teachers to transfer their licenses from one State to another, but many others still require that experienced teachers reapply and pass licensing requirements to work in the State.
Most States also offer alternative routes to licensing which are intended to attract people into teaching who do not fulfill traditional licensing standards. Most alternative licensure programs are open to anyone with a bachelor's degree, although some are designed for recent college graduates or professionals in other education occupations. Programs typically require the successful completion of a period of supervised preparation and instruction and passing an assessment test. Individuals can then begin teaching under a provisional license and can obtain a regular license after teaching under the supervision of licensed teachers for a period of 1 to 2 years and completing required education courses through a local college or other provider.

Other qualifications. Special education teachers must be patient, able to motivate students, understanding of their students' special needs, and accepting of differences in others. Teachers must be creative and apply different types of teaching methods to reach students who are having difficulty learning. Communication and cooperation are essential skills because special education teachers spend a great deal of time interacting with others, including students, parents, and school faculty and administrators.

Advancement. Special education teachers can advance to become supervisors or administrators. They may also earn advanced degrees and become instructors in colleges that prepare others to teach special education. In some school systems, highly experienced teachers can become mentors to less experienced ones, providing guidance to those teachers while maintaining a light teaching load.

The associates degree is designed as a two year program of study as a full-time student provided the student takes the degree as prescribed by the college, and provided the student does not require prerequisite coursework as a result of basic skills testing. There are some programs of study that may take a bit longer depending on the number of credits required. Usually these are programs within the health related fields. In addition, for students who require developmental course work as a result of basic skills testing, it would take longer. How much longer would depend on the extent of the developmental courses they are required to take. Evidently, those individuals who attend college on a part-time based would also extend their time in school. How much longer would depend on the credit load carried each semester. Typically, an associates degree takes between 60 and 64 credits to complete depending on the specific school, program of study, and state mandates.

Ultimately a medical degree (that is a Doctorate), with a further specialization in Pediatrics, and perhaps further training in a sub-specialty (like cardiology, neuro, etc.) is required to be pediatrician. Hence, there is no specific bachelors (or undergraduate) degree one would get. Generally, for most medical fields, the undergraduate degree is in either a premedical program, some strong science (like Biology, chemistry, etc.), and of course excellent grades and medical school admittance board scores help get one in to a medical school after obtaining that undergraduate degree.

Typically, undergraduate work is never applied to a graduate degree. An Associates Degree can be applied to a Bachelor's. You must have a Bachelor's degree to qualify for entry into a Graduate degree program.

A certified copy has an official stamp certifying it as a true and complete copy of a record. A certification of a document is usually signed by hand or with a stamp identifying the head of the agency from which the certified copy was acquired.
