From the Coastline Blog:
Failing to prepare is preparing to fail. One thing that can positively affect your first day back to school is what you do the night before.
The first day of school is always tricky– especially when school is online. Your day-to-day environment isn’t changing a whole lot since you aren’t physically going to classes. Your way of learning may need alteration in order to keep up. Getting back into a solid school routine can be difficult. After all, a majority of online school is driven by yourself.

Attend our next Information Session about our Supply Chain Management program to learn about the high-paying and exciting jobs available. Covid has created a permanent shift in consumer buying habits and it will take years, if not decades, for our supply chains to adapt to that. Many current industry professionals, who were the ones to launch global supply chains by outsourcing and offshoring operations in the 1990s, are ready to retire. Companies are desperate for new talent to create what will become global supply chain 2.0. These are not jobs driving trucks. These are high-paying office jobs managing and coordinating the movement of goods, identifying supply chain risk, establishing new supply chain partner relationships, etc. And, if you are interested in global travel on the company dime, this is the industry for you! Learn more about how to enter this exciting field.
Wednesday, January 29th
