You could go to classes to work as a realtor for a real estate. Alot of realtors will send people to classes for several weeks. At the end of the term, you will have to take a test regarding the knowledge you have learned. If you dont pass it, you can take another test later and have brushed up on the questions they might ask. CHECK ON IT. cALL REALTORS. bettyk

Consider giving a call to the counseling department of the High School you went to. Ask them what the meaning of the certificate is, and what it might allow you to do.
Ask also, if there would be any advantage in your taking a GED test.

College may or not be the place for you. You might consider taking a trade-school course with your community college. They would also have specific business and tax classes.

Another way to proceed is to go to your state office of Vocational Rehabilitation (Voc Rehab). They do assessments and help people who have disabilities in training and job placement.

In your community there may be organizations assisting people with disabilities - check your phone book, or ask around. (In my area it is called DDRC Developmental Disabilities Resource Center)

Sorry, with a certificate instead of a diploma it isn't going to happen. Check with school officials and see if there is any way you can get a diploma.

Start with community college. They will assign a mentor to help you.
