If you are working outside of your job description, then it should definitely be looked at. It would probably give you more room in your pay scale to grow, and it would also give your resume a bit more oomph when you decide to change jobs.

Of course, you don’t actually have to be the “definitive” expert. Once you’ve delivered a few successful lessons, add your teaching credentials to your resume and About page.

If you really are selling your presence, as a consultant or handy man, you should definitely use the hire pages as a way to clearly state your expertise.

Many freelancers don’t have to send their resumes to people anymore, so those degrees don’t see a lot of action, but they’re there, collecting dust on our walls.

One road is definitely easier, less risky and may give you security and make your mama happy, and the other is bumpy, sometimes dark and spooky (the kind of road your mama told you to NEVER go down), but if she never went down it, how would she know what’s on the other end? Definitive statements. And you did it all your own.
