Wherever You Are

When you push past the familiar, you get to redefine what’s possible. These stories are proof. They show that the “perfect” opportunity is the one you get started on—wherever you are.

Sometimes, success will surprise you. Other times, it pushes back. When you stay the course—and overcome—there’s no telling how confidence will change you.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Rasmussen worked out very well. With the accounting curriculum, it's great because it's what I'm seeing in my work each day. I rediscovered that I do like to learn quite a bit. It was a special time for me.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
Rasmussen offered me the ability to be able to do online classes. Somebody was always there to know exactly where I was going with my program. And, now, I'm the first person in my family to graduate from college.

Speaker 3 (00:26):
I knew I wanted to go back to school. Rasmussen had a hybrid physical therapy assistant program available. This is the first job that I've ever had that I look forward to going to work on Monday.

Speaker 4 (00:39):
After being an at-home mom for 21 years, I decided I would go back to school. Rasmussen made it super easy. I love my job. It couldn’t have worked out better.
