Default WOW! I got super good news yesterday...
I've worked at a high-tech company for over 12 years now, I've had great growth opportunities and I've had pretty good managers throughout. Well, I was invited to interview with a panel of execs in my company to receive sponsorship to a master's program in my professional field last week. I just found out yesterday that I WON! I was selected to be sponsored for the Master's program.

I'm super excited!! this is such a huge opportunity. My company pays everything, including tuition and my travel and expenses for the program. It's a executive program, which means I will still work while I am completing the degree...but when all is said and done they will have spent about $80K on me!!

I can't tell anyone at work yet because they haven't notified the other candidates, so I just had to share here!! YAY!!
