What can you really do with an AA/AS degree?

Same here, dfbdfb.I’ve seen ads for paralegals withboth levels of education. And yes, you CAN get into restaurants without a degree, but the CC’s here do teach cooking at a restaurant level, and even a class or two puts you above the kid on the street who likes to cook at home. OP, “kitchen structures and design, inventory and control, service systems and advanced menu development within a commercial setting” are pretty critical for working in a high volume setting.

In WA you need to take certain classes called STARS I think, to work in most licensed child care jobs. The CC’s teach them. While there ARE unlicensed workers, there’s a move away from that-wouldn’t you want YOUR kid in a place with trained caregivers?

Not all of these jobs will support a family with good benefits, but they will get someone a better job than no advanced education.
