Online Degree Learning

Online Education Programs. Are they worth the paper they are printed on?

I am considering persuing an online degree in Accounting. I was wondering if the degree is readily accepted by companies during the hiring process in comparison to going to a brick and mortar school.

Response from anyone who has gone through an online degree program, obtained a degree and found quality work. Did you feel like the fact that the degree was received online had any drawbacks?

Any helpful/informative comments are appreciated.

Make sure they are regionally accredited if you want to use the credits later to transfer to a brick and mortar school. Also if you use Penn Foster ,Ashworth or Stratford I read that some employers will not accept as legit.
I have been researching these schools and the biggest complaint I see is that they use outdated materials to train you.
On the up side Penn Fosters credits are so cheap- I checked with my local community college which has an online program and they are 4 times the cost!

I think if you want a really good online degree with no worries you should go for a school that also has the brick and mortar- but it will not be cheap( Drexel was 600 per credit) and they do not offer every course online so u still have to go for some.

If you find a school online just do some research- u can also check consumer Rip off reports dot com- some of these schools have hundreds of complaints on there!
Good LUCK to You and let us know what u decide!

Online degrees, what is the criteria to find out if the degree is accepted at other colleges?

There are many online degree programs offered on the internet. How can I check if the online degree is accepted by the job market. A school teacher with a master’s degree in education had to pay back her salary increase because the degree wasn’t accepted by the Dept of Ed.

Yes there are many but are they from accredited institutions? Need to be very careful about that since only those from such an institution will be nationally recognized. If it’s accredited I’d go for it. Check this website for the list of online degrees that are nationally accepted

are there any ligit online colleges that offer bachelors degrees in education?

admin — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 20:36:12 +0000

i can’t find any and didn’t know if they existed. When I search the sites it says they do but when I fill out the application for some reason it says graduates program

There may be. But be sure to check with the licensing board in your state. Some boards do not accept online courses in your particular field. If this is the case, you will have the education, but ineligible to be licensed to teach in your state.

can you pl suggest best rated online programs to earn dual degree in teachers education?

admin — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 22:32:11 +0000

Trying to assess and evaluate the best online dual degree program offered in order to complete and earn teacher education degree. How to rate the best online program ? Please advice.

plenty of online schools offer bachelors degrees and masters degrees with a teaching emphasis – but that is not sufficient to teach. You need a credential.

I have been answering this the same way for the last year – There are no schools that offer one.

You cannot become a teacher online only.

Is the University of Massachusetts – Lowell continuing education online BA degree accredited regionally? Good?

admin — Mon, 22 Mar 2010 00:23:05 +0000

I might be interested in it, but I don’t want one of those bogus "degree mill" degrees. I’m already in college at a four year school, but online is convenient for me. UML looked good, but I’m unsure if this degree is for real, and if employers would be able to tell if it is an "online degree". By the way the degree is for I.T. and it is listed as a bachelors degree on their site. thx.

UMass-Lowell is accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges, which is a recognized regional accrediting body. All their programs, including online programs, are accredited by the regional accrediting body.

For more information about accreditation and degree mills, check out the Council of Higher Education Accreditation website at www.chea.org.

Are there any online universities for Elementary Education Degree in NY?

Are there any online universities for Elementary Education Degree in NY?

None that I know about. YOu probably could take some classes online but not the whole degree. NY certification to become a teacher is one of the most stringent in the US. Teachers trained in NY can work anywhere but if you trained in another state it is hard to get certified in NYS.
