| About Online Degree
Programs |
We have got to tell you how excited we
are about the current level
of distance learning that
exist in this world. Nearly
every nation on earth provides
a myriad of information on
every branch of knowledge
imaginable. And finally the
tools that were only available
on Star Trek is now right
at your fingertips.
It builds on the idea that students are
learning all the time you
don't have to be sitting in
a classroom listening to an
instructor deliver a lecture
about a particular topic to
learn about that topic. As
with traditional higher education,
students can take distance
learning courses for self-improvement,
certification, or to earn
a degree.
| So what is distance
learning ? |
Online distance learning is
a term we apply to any distance
learning course that is delivered
via computer and has two or
more Internetbased components.
The Internet is a system of
computer networks joined together
by highspeed data lines, and
electronic mail (e-mail),
scheduled Internet Relay Chat,
and the World Wide Web are
considered Internet-based
components to online distance
learning courses. Electronic
mail consists of messages
that are sent from one person
to another .....more
| How Does Online
Learning Work ? |
A college degree has become
an invaluable credential for
a rapidly increasing number
of professions. In fact, in
most fields the absence of
a degree can stunt an otherwise
promising career. Unfortunately
for many thousands of working
adults, the commitments involved
in maintaining a career, along
with the pressures and demands
of family life, form virtually
insurmountable obstacles to
returning to school to earn
the degree they need...
| Is distance Learning
For You ? |
If you want to earn a certificate
or degree, or simply want
to enhance your work skills
and experience, but you find
yourself unable to attend
traditional courses for one
reason or another, then online
distance learning may be just
the thing for you.
You may be a parent who works full-time
and doesn't want to give up
what little time you have
with your children to commute
to campus and sit through
a lecture. Or you may have
child care issues that are
preventing you from enrolling.
You might be a disabled or
retired person who finds it
challenging to get to a location
where traditional courses
are offered. Or you may live
in a rural area and can't
bear the thought of driving
a couple of hours or more
just to take a class. Online
distance learning addresses
all of these problems that
one finds with traditional
courses. It doesn't require
a commute to an other location
and, for the most part, you
can work on courses at your
convenience.
Accreditation is formal recognition,
or a guarantee of sorts, that
an entire school or one of
its programs of study meets
certain standards and provides
quality education. In the
United States, schools and/or
programs of study may be accredited
by one of six regional agencies,
a specialized accrediting
agency, or a state agency.
| What should you
look out for |
Pursuing a certificate or degree is not
a process to be taken lightly.
This is your education we're
talking about. And you probably
want the best education possible,
right? While you can use this
site to identify potential
schools and programs of study,
there will come a time when
you need to research further
on your own.

| Are Online Degrees
Creditable |
The degree you earn is as
credible as the institution
from which you earn it. This
means if you choose a quality
school, then a degree you
earn through distance learning
will be just as credible as
a traditional degree in the
same major from the same school.
| Advantages of Distance
Learning |
There are several advantages
to taking courses online instead
of in a traditional classroom.
Here are a few:
-
Taking online courses from home
doesn't require commuting.
This saves you time
and money; Time that
you don't have to spend
in the car and money
that you don't have
to spend on gas and
car maintenance.
-
You can complete most of the coursework
for online classes when
it's convenient for
you. Most online courses
are asynchronous, which
means you don't have
to attend a lecture
at a particular place
and time. You can review
what would traditionally
be lecture material
and work on assignments
before or after work,
during your lunch hour,
or after the kids have
gone to bed-whenever
it best fits your schedule.
-
Being able to take classes from
home and working on
assignments on your
own schedule enable
you to be home with
your children. This
can save you child care
costs.
-
Online courses address physical
accessibility issues
that some disabled persons
and senior citizens
encounter when taking
traditional classes.
You don't have to worry
about gaining access
to a campus building
or being forced to sit
in uncomfortable desks
for one or more hours
at a time. Instead,
you access the course
materials from home
through your computer.
The furniture you use
is your own so it's
most likely comfortable.
And you have the luxury
of being able to get
up and stretch whenever
you need to do so without
interrupting an entire
classroom full of students.
| How to apply to
a School? |

a completed application, an

A portfolio is a collection of documents,
transcripts, and work-samples
that you can use to support
an application for admission
or when requesting life-experience
credits, as well as for job
applications and interviews.
It is intended to reflect
your knowledge and experience
in a particular area. Many
schools that offer distance
learning will perform a portfolio
assessment allowing you to
earn credits for your past
work and life experiences
outside of a classroom, and
some even award credits that
you can transfer to other
colleges.
