Hey guys, I am new to these forums and I just recently signed up and joined, however, I have been a lurker around here for quite a while. I have been wanting to get a start somewhere in information technology for quite a while unfortunately until now I have never really had the opportunity to go to school due to my situation. I have a two year old son and I am a single father so time really does matter, and as much as in the end I would like to go further and get my bachelors degree I need to have a decent job as soon as possible to support him. I am more so looking at my options for associates degrees and perhaps pursuing a bachelors degree online later while I work at the same time. I have an opportunity now where I have been offered a place to stay while I attend school and help with my son while I attend school, and I am trying to make the most I can of this situation. My question is this, I have always loved computers when I was young I used to play games and anytime I had a problem I would do anything I could to fix it which has played a huge role in why I am choosing this career. Because I enjoy it and love it. In all honesty outside of school I am learning as much as I can and I intend to be a jack of all trades because I am interested in everything from networking, to programming. However, I originally was wanting to go into Information Security, and I am having a hard time differentiating between the different names of programs, and names of different careers and what will lead me where. Any help on what program I would want to go towards for this would be appreciated. Thank you in advance I appreciate it.
