Chapman – Digital Classroom Behavior Syllabus
Some of our expectations on the digital community.
Important: Trade Unions have apprenticeship programs that pay you hourly while you learn hands-on! No need to pay for trade school.
You need to decide what you want to do as a career/job. That way we can help you plan what you need to focus on. How are you going to get that career/job?
Before we go further, I want to introduce you to ROI— Return on Investment. I say this because if you are going to pay for college/university, then you need to know if the degree you are paying to learn is going to be able to pay back what you invested to get that degree! It is a bad investment if you pay fifty thousand dollars to get a degree that will only pay you sixty thousand a year. You must do your research before you invest the money. It is your responsibility to research your investment.

“Read 500 pages…every day. That’s how knowledge works. It builds up, like compound interest. All of you can do it, but I guarantee not many of you will do it.” — Warren Buffett
