Upgrade yourself through online education

I once worked in a telecoms company with an Asian counterpart. There, I met several electronic and communications engineer graduates together with this Asian friend of mine. As he was also doing the same job scope as these engineers, I assumed that he was also a graduate of the same course as they are. I never bothered asking until I get to see his job title and it was way below these other engineers in their department. So I started wondering why he is doing the exact same tasks as the other engineers and yet having a lower job title and most probably lower pay rate. As it might be offending to ask him directly, I fished for information with other engineers working with him. There I learned that he is not a degree holder and hence cannot be given the same title as the other engineers. As a concerned friend, I talked to him and gave some advice as to how he can earn his degree while not giving up the job and soon get promoted as the other engineers. I suggested to him to visit the website of Western International University and check their Degree Programs. Most probably there will be Online Degrees listed there which will fit to gain his degree. I’m just hoping that he takes my advice as I know he’s got the ability to be a true blue engineer.
