The benefits of online learning and online classes have become much clearer to working adults.
What to Expect in an Online Course
Online learning can take all sorts of shapes and sizes. So, what to
expect varies widely depending on the type of course or program you
seek.
If you’re looking to gain basic knowledge of a specific topic, a free
online course may be the answer. These are more likely to be
self-paced, which often means less direct guidance from an instructor.
Offerings are available in virtually any subject area that comes to
mind, including both soft and hard skills.
You may consider a paid online program offering a credential if
you’re looking to make a more dramatic career change or advance into a
managerial role (or help members of your team move into new internal
positions or gain new skill sets).
This credential may be a certificate,
professional certification, or a full online degree program, among
others.

Today is an exciting day in Mexico! Legal-Ease International wishes all our clients in this glorious country a Happy Independence Day!
We thought we would share a brief history of this beloved and important Holiday
Mexico,
once known as New Spain, was a colony harshly ruled by the kingdom of
Spain for over 300 years. The native population was oppressed, farmland
and personal wealth were confiscated and only Spaniards were allowed to
hold political posts. Finally, a Catholic priest in the town of Dolores
named Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla had enough.
On
September 16, 1810, he rang his church’s bell and delivered a speech
now known as the Grito de Dolores (Cry of Dolores), demanding the end of
Spanish rule. This began the brutal Mexican War of Independence, which
lasted over a decade. On August 24, 1821, Spain withdrew and officially
recognized Mexico as an independent country. Today, Father Costilla is
known as the Father of Mexican Independence. Mexican Independence Day
has now been celebrated every year since that momentous day on September
16, 1810.
Mexican Independence Day has developed into a huge nationwide
celebration
over the past 200-plus years. The country’s leaders were inspired by
our own July 4 Independence Day festivities, so fireworks fill the skies
at night and the day is filled with patriotic speeches, flag-waving,
parades, live music, and home-cooked feasts. Red, white and green — the
colors of the Mexican flag — are seen everywhere across Mexico and even
cities in the USA with big Mexican populations.
One
of the most popular events connected to Mexican Independence Day is
when the President of Mexico rings the 200-year-old bell Father Costilla
used in 1810 and recites the Grito de Dolores speech in front of
500,000 people. This event is broadcasted live to millions via Mexican
TV and radio on the evening of September 15.
Many
people outside of Mexico have the idea that Mexican Independence Day
and Cinco de Mayo are the same things. Cinco de Mayo celebrates another
victory when the outnumbered Mexican army defeated the powerful French
militia in 1862 during the Battle of Puebla.
VIVA MEXICO and Happy Independence Day!
