Online Fashion Merchandising Courses-A Convenient Path to a Fashion Career

Sunday Feb 28, 2010

The Internet has revolutionized education. Distance and online learning is one of the fastest growing segments of the educational field. If you are thinking of attending fashion school for a fashion merchandising degree or certificate, you may want to consider an online fashion design program. These online programs have evolved and are more comprehensive and sophisticated to meet student needs.

As a fashion merchandising student, you’ll learn the nuts and bolts of fashion design and marketing. You’ll study the whole cycle of fashion creation, concentrating primarily on the manufacturing, buying, selling, and promotion of items to retail and other outlets. You’ll also learn about the actual textiles that create fabrics, and their manufacture.

There are many advantages to studying fashion merchandising online. You will have a more flexible schedule, and can study around your job, or other responsibilities. A great way to get even more prepared for working in the field is to take a fashion-related job while you are attending school online. This will help you get real world fashion experience that can enrich your online education, and help qualify you for your fashion merchandising career once you graduate.

There are a number of schools that offer online programs. Many respectable and respected fashion campuses also offer an online component. Its better to enroll in an online program that is well-known and has a presence in the fashion industry. Many schools offer a two year associates degree or a certificate, and some schools offer a four year bachelor degree. Whatever degree program you choose, you want to make sure that your online program has the appropriate accreditation, so that when you graduate, your achievement has merit in the industry, and is recognizable.

Another factor to consider is the job placement assistance offered after you graduate. Most schools will have statistics regarding the number of graduates working the fashion merchandising industry. Before you enroll, you should review the school’s job assistance program, and make sure it is comprehensive as possible.

A fashion merchandising career is one of the most flexible and varied in the fashion industry. Once you have achieved your diploma or certification, there are a wide variety of positions available. You could work in retail as store manager, or store owner. You could also work as a fashion buyer, merchandiser, fashion event planner, and that is just a small number of the variety of positions available.

If you live too far away to attend an on campus fashion school, or need more flexibility with your schedule, an online fashion merchandising program may be a good fit for you. More and more schools are catering to the needs of their students by offering online degree and certificate studies, and there are now a number to choose from. Your fashion career could be just a few mouse clicks away.

Does anyone know if getting a job will happen after taking a online certificate course?

Sunday Feb 21, 2010

I am thinking about taking a Online Certificate course in medical coding and billing. What are the odds of getting a job when Im done?

Good.
Also consider self teaching yourself as much as you can.

Being self taught is also, just as well respected in my opinion – if not better.
Go to your bookstore and get a book on medical coding.
It may come with a cd, you can practice test from.

Buying Autos Online — Safely

Sunday Feb 21, 2010

 

Ask just about any person on the street, and he or she will tell you that this title is an oxymoron.

 

Well, it is not an unwarranted assumption, for there are many who in good faith have paid for online autos and who have then been defrauded one way or another; and they will not only agree, but underscore, that indeed, yes, it is an oxymoron.

 

Online Auto Purchase — Nightmare Scenario No. 1

 

The 1968 Ford Mustang that a private seller in Michigan offered for a little more than Sanderson had planned to spend was the precise car he was looking for. Precisely. Color, options, wheels, the lot.

 

So, his planned spending rose the 20% needed to meet the seller’s price, and he answered, yes, yes, I want to buy this car.

 

The Michigan seller emailed back, nice to know you, and delighted to do business. Just to make sure you know this is on the up and up, we will snail mail you a Certificate of Inspection, as well as our routing number and bank account; into which you should deposit 50% (plus $1,200 delivery charge) before we’ll ship the car. We trust you to pay us the remaining 50% upon acceptance of the vehicle.

 

Sanderson was convinced this was all on the level—the seller even had his photograph on the site that sold the car; and once he received the Certificate of Inspection, he wired the 50% plus shipping.

 

And that was the last he saw of his money, or the car, or the seller.

 

The Certificate of Inspection turned out to be a forgery. The bank account he had wired the money to, by the time the police inquired, had been closed. No address for the seller, and Sanderson out a considerable amount of money.

 

Online Auto Purchase — Nightmare Scenario No. 2

 

Wilson, in his fifties and a prudent man by all accounts, and a lot more business savvy than Sanderson found the very thing he was looking for in Florida. A 1976 Jensen Interceptor series III saloon, hand-built in England. Wilson had been looking for one for years.

 

Not the color he’d like, but he could always have it repainted.

 

Not cheap—well, he didn’t expect it to be. Eight emails later, and they had agreed upon a price.

 

And the seller, bless his heart, a man as cautious as Wilson himself, suggested they use an online escrow service to make sure the deal would go through smoothly, to everyone’s satisfaction. He even recommended a great looking company called reliable-escrow.com to handle the transaction.

 

Wilson visited the site, and was impressed by the professional approach to the deal it presented. He felt reassured.

 

Everything was in place. As agreed he deposited 50% of the purchase price (a small fortune) in the escrow account—the balance to be paid upon acceptance. Then he waited, and waited, and waited.

 

By the time investigators got around to it, reliable-escrow.com no longer existed (it had been registered in Russia), and Wilson had lost his small fortune.

 

Online Auto Purchase — Nightmare Scenario No. 3

 

Money exchanges hands. Shipping arrangements are made. The car arrives. Yes, it is the same year, model and color as stated in the ad, but some of the other statements stretched the truth a little. New tires, for one—these had hardly any thread left. The left headlight did not work, neither did the air conditioning, nor the rear seatbelts. This list did go on.

 

When challenged the seller referred to the contract which did—darn it, there it was—have an as is clause, and the agreement, not the ad, was the legally binding document here.

 

The buyer ended up spending an additional $2,350 on a $4,000 car to make it drivable, with no recourse to collect.

 

Good Intentions

 

Good intentions—admirable things that all too often fall short of proper follow-through—even when present in spades at the outset of an online auto deal are no guarantee that it will go through in the same spirit. Something is usually overlooked, and when the proverbial push comes to shove, the seller just does not want to eat the extra $500, sorry.

 

And at the other end of the spectrum—when the intention all along is to defraud you—take another look at the first two scenarios (the third may or may not have started out in good faith).

 

Internet Fraud

 

Now, if these first two scenarios were rare, isolated occurrences, this article would have no business being written.

 

However, Non-delivery of items purchased online constitute an impressive 24.9% of all fraud complaints filed last year with IC3—The Internet Crime Complaint Center, a partnership between the FBI and the National White Collar Crime Center (NWC3)—second only to Internet Auction Fraud, which was the most reported at 35.7%.

 

Vigilance

 

Therefore, when it comes to buying anything online from a private party—especially something as costly as an automobile—keep the following in mind:

 

·         Be aware that if a problem does occur, it will be more difficult to resolve if the seller is located outside the United States—laws can differ widely country to country;

 

·         Learn as much as possible about the seller, especially if the only information you have is an e-mail address;

 

·         Before you make a payment for any purchase, you should verify the seller’s identity and contact details in case there is a problem with the delivery of the item;

 

·         Ask the seller when delivery can be expected and whether the merchandise is covered by warranty if you need to exchange it;

 

·         Use registered or certified mail to enable tracing; this will eliminate claims that the parcel was sent but must have been “lost in the mail;”

 

·         Check that the seller information matches email, phone number and any bank account and location information;

 

And here is the most important advice of all:

 

·         If you have any doubts about the identity and integrity the of seller—and when it comes to high-ticket items such as automobiles, even if you have no doubts whatsoever, and if all intentions appear angel-like: use an escrow agent.

 

An escrow agent or company is an independent third party that holds payment in trust until the buyer receives and accepts the item from the seller. While this service does incur a fee, it protects the buyer because the third party will hold the money until the goods have been received in good condition, inspected, and accepted; and only then releases the funds to the seller.

 

Internet Escrow

 

The principle and process of Internet escrow is the same as with buying and selling real estate—where, of course, the escrow company is deemed indispensible due to the amounts involved.

 

·         The buyer or seller opens an account with the online escrow company;

 

·         The prospective buyer of an item sends payment by wire transfer, check or credit card to the escrow company;

 

·         The escrow company verifies that the funds indeed do exist, or that the buyer is who he represents himself to be and is in possession of the credit card, if used;

 

·         Once this checks out, the escrow company asks the seller to ship the merchandise;

 

·         Merchandise is shipped, and seller submits tracking information;

 

·         Once the shipping site shows the merchandise as delivered the escrow company double checks to ensure the buyer has the goods in hand;

 

·         The buyer now has an agreed-upon amount of time to either accept the goods or return it to the seller;

 

·         Once accepted by the buyer, the escrow company releases the funds to the seller, less any processing fees and commissions.

 

Straightforward enough. If, that is, you are dealing with a legitimate online escrow company.

 

Fighting the Fighter

 

But the world, as we know, likes to throw us curves; and in this instance the curve comes in the guise of escrow fraud.

 

Handling, as it does, substantial amounts of money, the bona fide escrow company is often itself a target of fraud—where look-alike phishing sites try to con you into providing them your confidential financial information; and where the escrow company concept itself is flagrantly abused by criminals who set up fraudulent escrow sites where money will only travel one-way: you guessed it, away from you.

 

In fact, the problem of fake on-line escrow sites is now so severe that some reputable and legitimate escrow sites have simply thrown in the towel.

 

Buyer Guardian, for example, recently shut its doors due to Internet fraud stealing their business, and posted the following note on their site: “We are sad to report that after careful and lengthy consideration we have made the decision to cease operations at BuyerGuardian.com. This is a very difficult decision, and one that is made primarily due to the rapid growth of online escrow fraud.”

 

Many of these apparently bona fide escrow companies, established for the sole purpose of enriching the criminal, are set up off-shore—predominantly in Russia or China—where lax cyber crime laws (and sometimes questionable cooperation with U.S. authorities) makes it more difficult to shut the sites down and bring the perpetrators to justice.

 

Enter: Escrow.com

 

Actually, Escrow.com entered this fray nearly ten years ago during the dot-com boom and has since shown itself to be the online escrow company to turn to for secure and fraud-less auction and other online sales/purchase transactions—with the credentials and staying power to prove it.

 

Licensed by the state of California—as well as by the States of Idaho and Arizona, who require separate licenses—Escrow.com is the only on-line escrow company credentialed to serve every state of the Union, and who indeed does so 24/7.

 

While Escrow.com will handle transactions of any size, it may not make financial sense to turn to them for low cost items since their transaction fee is $25, and their commission is $63 per $1,000 value of the transaction if payment is by credit card and $32.50 per $1,000 for wire transfers.

 

But, if you value your sleep, Escrow.com would be indispensible for any transaction of $250 on up.

 

Peace of Mind

 

Michigan-based telecomclassifiedads.com, which buys and sells expensive telecommunication switching equipment concurs, and would not, according to Mickey Fivenson, complete any online transactions without Escrow.com.

 

“I use Escrow.com for all my equipment transactions, and without them I would not be in business. It’s as simple as that.

 

“I deal with buyers and sellers on a daily basis who do not know each other and who live in different parts of the world. Escrow.com is the only way I can complete a transaction between them.

 

“As a result, after five years of doing business through Escrow.com I have never had anything but satisfied customers.”

 

Dave Kurko of RPM Auto Wholesale in Pleasant Hill, CA could not agree more:

 

“Escrow.com provides a safety net for both seller and buyer, delivering certainty in an uncertain world.

 

“Most people understand the concept of escrow, particularly if they have bought and sold real estate in a jurisdiction that uses an escrow company rather than an attorney to settle a real estate transaction; in fact, we have modeled our transaction on the real estate transaction. Escrow.com has made this approach not only possible but also very effective.

 

“They are also very customer centric, and thanks to their tech support we have been able to integrate opening an escrow account with them into our own web-hosted application, allowing our CRM software to talk directly to their database over a secure link.

 

“Really, they’re the only game in town. We’ve searched other companies, and nobody else measures up.”

 

Escrow.com—Going the Extra Auto Mile

 

And when it comes to automobile transactions, Escrow.com does go the extra mile (no pun indented).

 

All buyers and sellers located in the United States using their Vehicle Escrow service can also avail themselves of the following additional Escrow.com auto services:

 

Title Transfer

 

Escrow.com can handle everything—including the paperwork—from start to finish for all 50 states.

 

Inspection Service

 

Using the latest in handheld computing, and following standardized inspection and auditing procedures, trained personnel electronically record all inspection and audit information right in the field. Reports are then made available on the Escrow.com website and are made downloadable for convenience.

 

Vehicle Title Insurance

 

TitleGuard Vehicle Title Insurance provides a vehicle history report and insurance for up to $50,000 against any unreported DMV brands, title defects, and evidence of odometer rollback for as long as the policyholder owns their vehicle.

 

Vehicle and Motorcycle Transport

 

Dependable Auto Shippers can have your vehicle delivered anywhere in the world; and JC Motors Motorcycle Transport can have provide the same service for your motorcycle.

 

Vehicle History

 

Escrow.com can provide a vehicle history report that includes vehicle description, title check, past problem check, odometer history, and a summarized history.

 

Escrow.com—The Detective

 

While Escrow.com understandably is gaining increased recognition as the Internet escrow company to turn to for peace of e-commerce mind, their staff, on a daily basis, also hunt and diligently work to shut down fraudulent impostors, which are encountered daily.

 

And they spring up like mushrooms, these impostors: there are days that Escrow.com staff discovers as many as ten new such sites.

 

The good news is that as these sites are tracked down, authorities are alerted and the sites are soon off the air.

 

eBay Weighs In

 

To quote the biggest online market of them all, eBay:

 

Pay safely – beware of fake escrow services when you consider using them to pay for your eBay item.

 

For eBay transactions, you should use eBay’s only approved Escrow Company: www.escrow.com

 

To avoid being deceived by fraudulent email from a fake escrow service, you should visit the escrow service’s Web site to verify information you received via email.

 

Make sure you type the entire Web address (for example, www.escrow.com) into your Web browser. Don’t let your Web browser auto-complete the Web address for you. It could mistakenly auto-complete a fraudulent Web address.

 

Escrow.com—The Household Name

 

More importantly, however, as Escrow.com gains further and further recognition on its way to become a household name, it gets harder and harder for impostors to defraud the public for the excellent reason that they are not Escrow.com—the only name you know you can trust.

 

Here’s to peace of mind and a good night’s sleep.

 

And to successful online auto transactions.

Certificate Of Deposit As Safe Investment Alternative

Sunday Feb 14, 2010

Are you one of the few who despite the financial turmoil has been able to save some cash? Do you have cash on hand because you sold the rest of your stock or mutual fund portfolio after watching it drop? If the answer is yes, I have one question for you, what are you going to do with it? With the stock markets down 40% or more, investing and making your savings grow has become a challenge. A safe investment for your money would be Certificates of Deposit or CD.

A CD is actually commonly called “time deposit”. A certificate of deposit is somewhat similar to a regular saving account but with a twist. Unlike saving accounts, where you are free to withdraw anytime, Certificate of deposits have fixed terms.

There are tons of CD terms, 1 month to 3 months or more, some terms are as long as 10 years. During this time, you can’t withdraw your money, but you are guaranteed to earn fixed interest rate that’s much higher than a traditional savings account rate.

The rule of the thumb is, the longer the term, the higher the interest rate. Certificate of deposits are offered by banks, thrift institutions, and credit unions. Your deposit is safe as it is insured by FDIC up to $250,000 per depositor.

If you are planning to invest in a CD there are tons of online resources to find the best CD rate.

Here is a small sample of current CD rates.

1. You can earn 2.40% on your deposit for a 1 month CD. The minimum deposit is $10,000.

2. Another bank offers as much 4.27% for a 12 month CD. There is a $500 minimum deposit for this provider.

3. For a deposit of $10,000 in a 5 year CD, you can earn up to 5.02%.

4. A seven month Certificate of Deposit (CD) currently yields 4.11%. This special rate is a promotional online CD rate and the minimum opening balance is $5,000.”

5. GMAC Bank is offering a 3 month CD rate of 3.15% with an annual percentage yield of 3.25%. The rate is for balances of $500 or more. The penalty for early withdrawal for a 3 month certificate of deposit is 90 days of interest, basically all the interest you would have earned so be sure that you won’t need your funds before locking in this CD.

All the rates above are posted http://www.monitorbankrates.com.

So be sure you won’t need access to your money when you invest in a certificate of deposit. If you are unsure when you might need access to your fund it’s better to invest in only short term CDs, like a 1 to 3 months CD, instead of a longer term CD.

Certificate of Deposits allow you to earn easy money without risking your hard earned savings. However, I have a piece of advise for you, since financial institutions require that you don’t withdraw your money for the duration of the Certificate of deposit term, you must deposit only the amount that you won’t need during the term’s duration. Otherwise, instead of earning interest, you will lose some of your interest earned because banks charge a penalty for early withdrawal.

Tuesday Feb 2, 2010

An online accredited college degree program allows you to take individual online college courses and to get an impressive college degree, without having to attend on-campus classes.

These programs are ideal for non-traditional adult students, who can study at their convenience, while meeting their work and family responsibilities. They get a second chance to complete their college education and to acquire a degree that will add to their career portfolio.

You can join an online accredited college degree program and get a Bachelor’s degree, Master’s degree or Doctorate in a subject of your choice. Some of the popular subjects are business, information technology, computer science, education, psychology, social work, counseling and journalism.

Many students prefer to join professional certificate programs in subjects like stress management, security management, law enforcement and public health nursing, that will help them in their careers.

What you need to consider before you sign up

Before you join an online accredited college degree program you need to be sure about your personal goals and how an online college degree will help you to reach them.

Two-year schools are suitable for students who are very concerned about the cost and are not sure of their long-term goals or academic capabilities.

Four-year schools are suitable for students who are clear about their goals and are confident about their academic capabilities. Certificate courses are suitable for people who want to update their work skills, while degree courses are suitable for people who require an advanced degree and want to enter a professional field.

Securing Online Payments

Monday Jan 25, 2010

A study by TNS Research in August of 2006 shows that 87% of online shoppers are concerned with credit card fraud and 85% of online shoppers are concerned about identity theft when providing their credit information online. As an online retailer, you must work to gain trust of your customers in order to enable success of your e-commerce business. It certainly won’t do if 65% of your site shoppers discontinue their orders before paying because of the check-out process!

How do you gain the trust of your online shoppers? Most online customers have learned to check for the “https” in the URL address as well as the little closed padlock graphic of the VeriSign Secured Seal. There are other security companies providing secure transactions online, but other studies have shown that 79% of United States online shoppers recognize the VeriSign Secured Seal, which is much higher than any other secure mark. In addition to the “https” and closed lock image, the newest web browsers are also able to support the green address bar whenever an authenticated certificate is detected- to give shoppers yet another method of verifying a secure website for online shopping.

If you have an online store or other retail site that accepts online orders and credit cards, you definitely want to provide a secure shopping environment for your shoppers. Using SSL technology protects your web site while helping customers trust you. SSL stands for Secure Sockets Layer, and what it does is encrypt the customer’s information and credit card data as it is sent over the Internet, while at the same time the SSL certificate contains unique information that is authenticated by an authority to verify the identity of the owner of the certificate.

When a website accepts payments without the SSL encryption, information submitted by the customer is sent in a way that people might be able to access it. It would be like sending cash through the mail inside a translucent envelope! You might have a few honest people who just send it on its way, but all it would take is one person to see the cash inside the clear envelope and take it out before it reaches it’s destination. The other part of SSL technology- the verification of the owner’s certificate is how online shoppers can be assured that the business they are shopping from is real, and therefore can be trusted. Without third-party verification, asking customers to shop your site is like asking for someone to send their banking details without knowing who they’re giving the information to- it isn’t going to happen because there is no reason to trust them!

Some online retailers have reported that their sales have risen about 10% after placing the VeriSign Secured Seal on the payment pages of their website in comparison to the sales achieved prior to the placement of the seal. This is proof that customers recognize and trust the seal as indication they are shopping on a secure, trustworthy site.

As stated previously, there are numerous providers of SSL technology, however, VeriSign is by far the most popular with over 93% of the Fortune 500 companies using VeriSign for SSL protection on their websites, and 40 of the world’s largest banks using VeriSign for internet security issues. Not only is VeriSign trusted by the largest corporations and banks, but it is recognized by online shoppers which is the first step to providing customers with a trusting shopping environment. Additionally, VeriSign will work with many Internet browsers- including some that are older- to the extent of 99.9% of web site visitors receiving either 128 bit or 256 bit encryption.
