Evaluation of Journey:
I began this journey by setting myself two educational goals and two professional goals. These goals when set where hopefully wishes and dreams. I listed in my Career Pathway Assessment paper this ways I would obtain these goals. Besides needing more time to complete and study for the CEN review course. I am happy to say that I successfully obtained my goals set. This makes me feels accomplished and even more thrilled I choose Old Dominion University to complete these goals. I believe I have become an educational equal to my peers.
