Should I keep pursuing higher education after getting my associate's degree, even if I can already get a good career with this?
I'm in my second year of trade school and already have certificates in wind turbine technology and industrial maintenance. I'm about to get certified in robotics as well so I'll have my associate's degree in energy technology. That means I can get a career in wind turbines, boilers, power generation, electrical, robotics, automation, or any other sort of related field. Many careers in these trades already start around $60k+ and can easily get you 6 figures with enough overtime. Is it worth going for a bachelor's or even a master's? The education would help but it doesn't do much without actual experience, and I just want to get out to the field and make some real money.
