Embry-Riddle Online: A Proven Education on Your Terms
When the market crashed in 2008, Patrick Desir turned to one place he knew could help him achieve his lifelong goal: Embry-Riddle Worldwide. He needed a school that provided flexibility because he didn’t want to uproot his life in New York City.
Embry-Riddle Online: A Proven Education on Your Terms
Patrick Desir had wanted to be a pilot since he was 7, but found himself stuck behind a desk as a Wall Street financial advisor. From his Manhattan office, he would still find time to watch the airplanes come into LaGuardia Airport through the skyscrapers.
But when the market crashed in 2008, Desir turned to the one place he knew could help him achieve his lifelong goal: Embry-Riddle Worldwide. Desir knew that he needed a school that provided great flexibility because he didn’t want to uproot his life in New York City.
Online classes at Worldwide guaranteed that he could get the education he wanted without worrying about the stresses on his life and family. Because of that flexibility, Desir continued to work and took flight lessons all while continuing to take classes toward his B.S. in Aeronautics.
“I went from zero flight time to getting my multi-engine commercial pilot license with instrument privileges in five months total,” said Desir, who is in the process of becoming a First Officer with Tradewind Aviation after serving as an Aircraft Dispatcher with Talon Air. “Without Worldwide’s flexibility, such an endeavor would have been utterly difficult, if not impossible, to achieve.”
That flexibility is one of the cornerstones of the Worldwide experience, with online degree programs featuring multiple start times throughout the year.
And with decades of experience with new high school graduates, non-traditional students, community college transfers, active servicemen and servicewomen, and veterans, you’re sure to find the flexibility and support you need for your work or family environment.
