A major reason to study psychology is to understand yourself better and to improve your life. Perhaps you have trouble staying on a diet, that you get angry or annoyed too much or you feel depressed too often? These and other issues can be dealt with more successfully if you have a grasp of how and why the human mind – including yours – works.
Thus, what you learn in psychology courses may very well help you to better yourself and make you feel better about yourself as well. Of course, this may well lead to an improvement in your relationship with others, especially family and friends.
Psychology study can also help you understand the minds of other people you deal with. This knowledge can help you better cope in social situations, business dealings and just getting along better with others. If you gain a better understanding of people’s personalities, behaviors and emotions – this should help you be more successful and happy with your relationships with others in various situations.
While there are many offerings of online psychology courses, an excellent place to start is at an online learning site called “udemy”. They have many available courses, designed for beginners and most are recorded (not live). This allows you to study at your convenience and leisure, plus be able to ‘rewind’ the lessons for better understanding. While they are not free, most are modestly priced at about $20 per course. Remember – these courses are designed for you to learn and get more knowledge, not to get a degree and you don’t have to worry about getting a passing grade.
Please see https://www.udemy.com/topic/psychology-fundamentals/ and click on “Beginner Favorites” to see a detailed listing of various course offerings.
If you are looking to actually work as a professional in the field of psychology, then you will need to earn a degree in the field. This too can be done online – at home, at your convenience.
The following are the types of jobs that you can get with an undergraduate degree in psychology:
Career counseling
School counseling
Human and social services
Case management
Psychiatric technician
While there are a large number of online degree programs available, many of them are NOT accredited – which will hamper you from getting a good job in the field.
