I am a serving Indian Coast Guard Officer from the Technical Branch and have been serving the nation over the last 10 years. An online degree is an opportunity for me to improve my academic knowledge.

A diploma in electronics didn't open interesting project opportunities at my workplace. The exposure to different projects demanded more insights into databases and computer applications, after which I decided to enroll for an online degree so that my work-life balance remains intact and yet I can devote my time to continue learning.

I always had a hunger to pursue my master's and transition into management roles. But I couldn't find interesting options that would help me earn a degree while working. An online MBA was the only way I could transition into Management roles.

Soon after completing my 12th grade education, I got married and had two kids. I restarted my learning journey after a gap of 10 years. I decided to take a small step and began pondering over my wishes to become a graduate. My husband was the one who actually gave me the courage to act upon my wishes.
