I was sort of in your shoes

I just went through that whole process after going through another school and I don't feel like I got the right training. ~ I just started at MTEC and after looking over the materials that I will be going through, I know I definitely made the right choice. I didn't really how much I never learned at this other school until I saw how thorough this one is. I'm excited to see what lies ahead.
Good luck in your decision.

I was in your shoes...
I have been where you are. I have only been working from home for a month. It's just easier starting that way when you have kids and have to think about daycare expenses but you take what you can get when you are a newbie. I was in the right place at the right time when I was offerred a position. Just keep checking the job board on this site along with the other boards. Someone will give you a chance.
No problem! We were all in your shoes once!

It's sort of........
difficult but make sure your resume is outstanding. Apply to every freaking company in the world cause there are companies created everyday. The companies and list that are floating around on this board that is not even all of them. But like you said it takes dedication and you have to want it. I hope this helps.
I did the same sort of thing through a different CC
It definitely enriches the Career Step material. I don't think the CS material by itself would be entirely adequate to begin working productively out of the gate in MT, but that is my opinion. With added instruction through community colleges that use the curriculum, then it's kicked up a notch.
Good luck!
you really need some sort of designated work space
It is not practical to pick up and move multiple times a day. A good, comfortable chair is crucial for long periods of sitting. Will you be able to move that? I have upwards of 20 reference books (I do acute care) and cannot see moving those around on a daily basis. I think you will find that unless you can get "in the zone" you will not be productive and perhaps even be distracted as you try to work. Probably not what you want to hear, just my two cents. Good luck to you.
Try asking the school directly. Both Andrews & M-TEC have some sort of assistance programs, not sure
