Specialized Knowledge

Specialized Knowledge

The home study method of training is especially suited to the needs of employed people who find, after leaving school, that they must acquire additional specialized knowledge , but can not find time to go back to school.

Stuart Austin Wier prepared himself as a construction engineer and followed this line of work until the depression limited his market to where it did not give him the income he required. He took inventory of himself, decided to change his profession to law , went back to school and took special courses by which he prepared himself as a corporation lawyer.He completed his training , passed the bar examination, and quickly built a lucrative law practice.


Just to keep the record straight, and to anticipate the alibis of those who will say '' I couldn't go to school because I have a family to support" or "I'm too old" , I will add the information that Mr.Wier was past forty , and married when he went back to school. Moreover by carefully selecting highly specialized courses in colleges best prepared to teach the subjects chosen, Mr.Wier completed in two years the work for which the majority of law students require four years. It pays to know how to purchase knowledge!
