[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]H[b]as your daughter looked at public policy programs? [/b] I thought about law school, but the tuition was just too much to stomach (which was a great decision because I would have graduated in 2009) and ended up at policy school. I’m working in a federal agency doing policy work and it’s really fulfilling and I still get to dabble in law-type work (including rev/statute and court decisions). [/quote] Yes, she has! She's already searched out a dual BA/Master's program in public policy. She's very excited about it. The courses match her interests. Can you tell me more about your experience? How were job prospects once you finished the Master's program (if that's what you did). Thanks[/quote] I’m a new poster. I did the master’s in public policy. Worked in consulting for about 10 years then went to the client (federal agency) and now doing policy work. I manage a lot of people with reasonable accommodations. Government is definitely the way to go if you need some sort of accommodation - there is nowhere else in the real world that would tolerate special arrangements to do work. Private sector chews up and spits anyone out who doesn’t easily do the work - there are just too many candidates out there. If you have a documented disability you can get into a special hiring pool for the government - Schedule A. Google will provide more info. [/quote]
