Online education suits working adults well

February 1st, 2008 by admin

Today, online education is one of the best ways for working adults to pursue higher education without sacrificing short term financial goals. Aside from studying for degrees that may help you advance in your current job, you may want to take a degree in an unrelated field. Computer sciences and many other branches of knowledge lend themselves well to this kind of study. Unfortunately, if you want to study something that requires lab work, you may still need to enroll for course hours at a regular college. That said, you can still get a lot of degree requirements out of the way with online education.

Film Tax Credits in Iowa

January 25th, 2008 by admin

Iowa’s rolling hills, open plains, and foreests, its diverse population and cultures, attract producers of movies, television shows, commercials, and other film and video projects.  But its not just art, it is also business.  Because production costs help determine where such projects are made, Iowa now provides Iowa Film Tax Credits and other financial incentives to attract producers to film on location.

These incentives attract more production and are a cost effective approach to create jobs.  A cottage industry has sprung up to provide the support infrastructure and professional services to support the film industry.  This stimulates economic activity not just in the film industry, but also in other industries througout the state.
