Online degree!

Have you ever consider to pursue your study a step further, but like an old saying that your life has so little times but much to do!? Well.. dont get your dream fade away! coz now with all modern technologies come up,  many things become easier. One thing for sure is internet. It gives so much benefits and flexibilities for our life.  With this, a time (and distance) barrier isnt a problem any more to pursue a degree, because you can enroll yourself in an online degree programme.

And if you still a bit clueless about how online degrees in practice, I'll try to give you some overview! Various online degrees provider offer all degrees that traditional system has, from associate's, bachelore's, master's and doctor's degrees for a broad and increasing majors. In some instances, an online degree may be no different than a degree earned in a campus-based program. The instruction is often exactly the same, and the online degree contains no special designation. The significant difference is that you wont have a face-to-face communication while you enrolling this programme (of course!). 

In today’s brave new world of online cyber-world classrooms, admission criteria are not an impediment for the potential student. Likewise, costs are greatly reduced for the student since online educational programs do not have to maintain the overhead that traditional programs must maintain. Also, students can pursue their online educational programs at their own pace.

There are no requirements for the amount of credit hours that must be signed up for in any given time period. So, inspite of all differences and similarities between online and off-line colleges and universities, in many respects the curriculum can be very similar. 

You might be worry about how perceived quality of this online thing,  is it as qualified as traditional one? Well, some experts argue that degrees in certain fields are more accepted online than in others, while some programs are less suited for online-only schools. From a report published by Sloan Consortium stated that 57 percent of academic leaders rated the learning outcomes in online education as the same or superior to those in face-to-face. That number is now 62 percent, a small but noteworthy increase. And a more convincing survey (by the Distance Education and Training Council) found that 100 percent of employers who responded felt that distance education program graduates performed better on the job as a result of their degree (as compared to their previous performance)

But, please be aware that not all online colleges and universities are created equal. Some are nothing but diploma mills and scams; the diplomas that they issue are probably worth less than the paper they are printed on. However, one can very easily protect him or herself from such scam operations by finding out a very simple bit of information. Is the online educational program accredited? Quality online degree programs are always accredited by an accrediting agency.

As a resume, here are some major bennefits you'll get from online degree :

• An online degree program allows you to set your own schedule, at any time (early morning or even late at night, just as you like!) or any where you want as long as you have an internet connection.
• If you a comfort seeker, online degrees don’t expose you to intimidating professors or even students ;)
• Online degrees are cost effective.
