The woman in question is my niece. She is in her early 40s and has a 12 year old daughter. She has had various jobs over the years (waitress, retail, caretaking, assistant to professional actor, repairing old houses, antiques) but none of them steadily. She is very intelligent and a hard worker. She is educated but has little formal education beyond the 11th grade. The community college in question will accept her for these programs without a high school diploma or GED.

Please vote for one in the poll. Any comments that could be helpful will be appreciated.

Cybersecurity, is probably the highest paid, and most in demand, but her age and gender, will prevent her from being successful.

Addiction counseling, is also in demand, but her lack of formal education, may be an issue. Community College may not provide enough credentials for her to make a decent living.

Health Information Management, may be her best bet, because she would not be expected to have a 4-year degree.

Auto collision repair will pay more, but I don't know anything about demand.
