Do I need to have a degree to start up a service which helps people quit smoking? -


I want to start up a business that helps people stop smoking. Do I need a degree? and is there a course that teaches people how to help people quit smoking?
I have no idea why you would need a college degree to start a business. You-ll need a lawyer to write up a good disclaimer, for those who can-t quit smoking. Doctors prescribe medications to help people quit, and that-s not a guaranteed.
Did you used to smoke and you want to share with others what worked for you?
generally to own your own business you need a masters or associates degree in business and management and it would be very rare that youd be able to find a course to help people quit smoking nor would i think it would be considered as college credit. on the other hand, business is not a good field to get a degree in at the moment. i know 3 people with degrees in business, 2 have an associates degree and 1 has a masters degree in business and they all are working at chili-s as bartenders because the economy-s so bad. but i-m sure it-ll get better by the time you get a degree.
No but you-ve got to have some credentials.
