I am all for raising a person's job skills to increase his/her marketability. However, it is a race to get the skills before that area of the economy gets saturated with applicants. I've seen people go out to raise their skill level and when they have that certificate all of a sudden that market is closed. A lot of employers will not recognize University of Phoenix and other on-line degree mills so you have to go do it the old fashion way. Full enrollment at college or night school. Unfortunately, training while on the job to meet the educational requirement (in an expedient amount of time) is just not done anymore. The employer pretty much wants the degree or certificate in hand when you hire on. Once you take on debt for an education you have to pay it off. Everybody here can say (I know I did) they paid off their debt but a LOT of people (up to 1980) took their student loan out with no intention of repaying and declared bankruptcy (or became untraceable with the collections agency) to avoid the debt. Today collection agencies are pretty ruthless in regards to student debt. Somebody can correct me if I am wrong but in New York the standard period for collecting unemployment is 6 months barring what the Feds are doing or the Governor relative to a specific company or industry. Usually the people here in NY play the disability game if they have no intention of working able body or not. While I agree a lot of people just need to break down and re-invent themselves it is sometimes easier said than done.
