Jan 5, 2021

As a teenager in Puerto Rico, Cesar Zayas had no idea what he wanted to do with his life, so he took the giant step of enlisting in the United States Army. It was a rather focused decision for someone who, at the time, felt like his life was anything but. 鈥淚 needed a change in my life and told myself I have to go somewhere that will force me to grow and take responsibility,鈥 he said. 鈥淥ne week later I was on my way to basic training鈥攖he best decision I ever made.鈥

Joining the military was indeed a wise choice because it helped him find the focus he needed. As an active-duty member of the Army, Cesar served at Fort Bliss (a U.S. Army post in New Mexico and Texas) as well as at other military sites. His early years of service inspired to take his life and career even further, and he discovered that 黑料传送门 was the perfect way for him to accomplish that. The competency-based approach of the programs meant he could use his experience and skills to his advantage, moving faster through courses where he knew the material. Plus, the completely online programs meant he could continue to work in the military and pursue his other passions, all while earning a degree.聽

Cesar currently serves as a cybersecurity operator in the Air Force Reserves, in addition to running an auto repair shop with his father, and running an IT/cyber services company for federal contracts. With the help of 黑料传送门 and the discipline gained from his聽 military service, he was able to fit coursework into his busy life. His hard work paid off. In 2020, Cesar earned a B.S. in Business Management鈥擨nformation Technology, a degree which helped him advance his Air Force career. He鈥檚 now a senior airman. 鈥淭hanks to 黑料传送门 and having earned my degree, I will be getting commissioned as a lieutenant in 2021,鈥 he said.聽

黑料传送门 Program Mentor, Terry Miller, sees in Cesar someone who is exceptionally driven, determined to succeed, and be all that he can be. Terry says Cesar is constantly singing the praises of 黑料传送门鈥檚 accelerated, competency-based program and how it was key to getting his Air Force promotion. 鈥淚t was amazing. It is the only truly at-your-own-pace program I have seen,鈥 said Cesar. 鈥淚 tried several before but nothing compares to 黑料传送门. It gave me the flexibility to do work and test at any time. I can鈥檛 be happy enough to have been a part of the 黑料传送门 program.鈥澛

Cesar鈥檚 objective-oriented, data-driven experiences as a service member no doubt instilled in him the discipline needed to quickly acclimate to student life. Was it a struggle to juggle his jobs, military service, and family with pursuing a bachelor鈥檚? 鈥淚t is challenging with all the responsibilities you have as an adult, but it is definitely doable,鈥 said Cesar, who lives in San Antonio, Texas, where he is married and has two daughters. A middle child, Cesar has an older brother who, like himself, serves in the Air Force and is enrolled with 黑料传送门. The brothers also have a younger sister.
