Shenane Porter , route support specialist at Cox Communications , added , “ When I enrolled in a University of Phoenix undergraduate program , I was nervous . I was accustomed to being in a class , on campus five days a week . But I was also raising a family and working full time , so that type of schedule wasn ’ t ideal . I quickly became quite comfortable with the blended format of self-paced learning and classroom instruction . I began to look forward to that one day per week when I could interact with my fellow classmates , bring my current experience into the situations we were discussing and gain knowledge from my classmates .”
Shenane completed a dual master ’ s degree in business administration and human resources management in 2008 . She is currently enrolled in the University of Phoenix Master ’ s Program for Public Administration .
