There is no EE associate degree. There's an Electrical engineer 'tech' degree. But no Electrical Engineer degree.

Electrical and Electronics Engineers
Electrical and electronics engineers design, develop, and test electrical and electronic equipment, components, and systems.

I think the degree is good, you should look at some state universities though for the degree, you shouldn't be paying 76-90k for a undergrad degree
Job Outlook
Overall employment of electrical and electronics engineers is projected to grow 9 percent from 2023 to 2033, much faster than the average for all occupations.
About 19,000 openings for electrical and electronics engineers are projected each year, on average, over the decade. Many of those openings are expected to result from the need to replace workers who transfer to different occupations or exit the labor force, such as to retire.
| 2024 Median Pay | $118,780 per year $57.11 per hour |

I mean this is the nicest way possible. It would be a mistake for "you" to go into debt for a degree. Based on your posts here, you would most likely accrue that much debt and not have a degree to show for it. You sound like someone who would be better off pursuing a trade.
You just need to be sure to take the required freshman classes that count towards the degree and will be accepted by your university.
If you go to a community college in the same state ask the people other which credits transfer.
Stop it. You have no clue.

What engineering job are you getting with that? Entry level engineer roles require a bachelor's degree.

Does it have ABET accreditation?

He's been asking for career advice for years and hasn't listened to any of itDamn. You said that like OP ain't shyt.

what? nobody said stop at the associates degree, the credits from that program transfer over to a bachelors program.
Meaning you get two years off your bachelors degree.
You have been conditioned to think every entry level EE job requires a 4 year degree. It seems to me that's your problem...stop projecting it on others.
If he is good at this stuff and kills it in the interview....he'll get the job.
He just needs to finish the extra 2 years...which would cost him less.

Yeah, most traditional Engineering jobs require an ABET-accredited complete degree. Either as a hard requirement or a soft one (won’t pass filter/bias).
If for example a company has “Engineers” who don’t have a complete engineering degree from an ABET-accredited school and people die, they’re going to get sued to the ground.
ABET is the most important thing for an Engineer unless they graduated from a school like Caltech, M.I.T, etc.
There are no real traditional “engineering” jobs out there for someone halfway through a degree.
However, being in the middle of a degree program can open more doors.
It’s probably acceptable for a software-hybrid/embedded role not making something that can determine life and death in a circuit.
