Nominations in the Readers' Choice Awards are coming in. Be sure to nominate your favorites before February 15. See the categories in Wednesday's post.

Thanks to all those who have posted nominations!

As a lifelong learner, I'm still learning...every day! I discovered this morning that the nomination forms for the Continuing Education Readers' Choice Awards were not allowing you to make just one nomination.

That is fixed! In all of our five categories, you can now make from one to three nominations for your favorites. Here are the categories:

• Best Scholarships for Adult Students
• Best Schools for Adult Students
• Best Free Online Education
• Best GED Study Guide
• Best Learning Vacation

If you tried to make a nomination and had a frustrating experience, I'll hope you'll try again. If there are any other problems, holler! We might learn something else new!

Not only can you apply for one of Linfield College's adult degree programs for free until February 20 (a value of $100), if you do, you'll also be eligible for the school's Path to Scholarships Workshop. The school is also waiving its $50 application fee for certificate programs.

"On average, students that participated in these sessions last year won an average of $6,000 in scholarships," the school says.

Linfield offers the following adult degree programs:

• Accounting
• Management
• Social Science
• RN to BSN
• International Business
• Accounting certificate
• HR Management certificate
• Marketing certificate

Linfield offers three hybrid format programs, combining online courses with in-classroom instruction. Visit the school's website for more info: linfield.edu.

The Internet has made learning another language so much easier. I've written about busuu.com here before, and I'm happy to help spread the word that you can now learn Japanese on their site.

Japan has the third largest economy in the world, according to busuu, and more than 130 million people, around the world, speak Japanese. Maybe you'll be one of them?

Learning a new language can make you more attractive to employers, especially those with international business. Busuu.com can help. Try learning Japanese, or one of the site's 10 other languages.
