I did read your blog and the experiences you wrote about regarding Kaplan University. I wanted to share with you that I am just starting out with my education in IT (Web Development). However, I wanted to ask you how your overall experience with Kaplan was. Was it worth it? How the rest of the world and employers receive you with ...

We’ve read numerous times about how distance learning has helped students all over the world achieve their dreams. But what happens if you are an instructor who is deployed overseas? Well, if you are Cheryl J. Wachenheim, you make it work. This online instructor from North Dakota was deployed to Iraq and ...

I do not like to get into politics very much on this blog or anywhere else. At the end of the day, it serves no real purpose and provides nothing more than an agreement to disagree, at best. But as it relates to education, I cannot pass this one up.
But veterans are now receiving “emergency payments” ...

We have written a lot about the benefits of distance education. But something that might get overlooked more often than not is the doors that are opened for people who may have otherwise not been able to fulfill their dreams of earning an advanced degree. People who have a family and a job are the most visible out of the ...

Hello, I'm Lori, 20 something from the sunshine state and a new student at Ashford U studying for Business, only to hopefully end up with a degree in Education. I found this site through bing.com and thought it would be cool to get to know others in the same situation as I. New online students trying to get into the swing of things. I look ...

I thought about quitting this week. But alas, I keep plowing forward. Up until this morning, I seemed to have lost my energy and desire to do this anymore. Do I really care one bit about business innovation and sustainability? Do I care to write one more paper analyzing my experiences and how they relate to other ...

I almost wanted to throw up yesterday. Yeah, it sounds like “too much information”. But I was so angry and miffed that nausea was the default response to what happened to me. Here is the short version of what happened.
Last week, a very nice recruiter contacted me and did a 30-minute phone screen for a really good ...

NPR, one of my favorite sources for information and podcasts, has an article that talks about pilot initiatives where students are being paid or otherwise incented for good grades. And while I usually have a firm opinion on things of this nature, I cannot say that this time.
If a child is paid or incented for good grades, ...

As an employee of a statewide nonprofit agency, I am exposed to a lot of people who are low income, unemployed, and on welfare...what we strive to do is give them exposure to career and GED training, and hope to the community. A lot of the clients that visit are of the minority, have many children, and most are unemployed; for some of the ...

Hello everyone!

I will suggest for anyone looking for a degree to consider them, they are pretty reasonably priced. I am majoring in Social Sciences ...

HI All! I am a f/t stay at home Mom and I run an ebay business. My success rate over at ebay has been good, proud powerseller, although, I have endured some heartache! I still think that's the easiest business to get up and running in no time, while earring a (somewhat) good profit. Prior to that, PC tech/specialist/helpdesk support. That was ...

So Fall of 2008 is just around the corner and the usual excitement
that goes with that is crackling in the air.
The NFL is ramping up, the BCS people are already arguing over who the
next college football champ will be, the kids are looking at going to school,
the Class of 2012 is beginning their freshmen year in college or high ...

It is true that there is a low standard of acceptance at UoP and yes, they are a private university (for profit) as is Harvard.
There are many grateful people who worked hard to get their degree in spite of a family of three to support on a single income from a third-shift, factory job. Today, having a degree, regardless of the ...

Texas made it official on 7-24-08; they will now recognize national accrediting agencies such as the DETC, ACICS, COE, etc. For those of you who are new to the whole issue here's the short and ugly of it. The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board passed a policy which stated that only degree holders with a degree issued by a school ...

In the forums one of the most frequent questions I see is "which school is right for me" or "can you help me choose a school" or "do you know of a school" etc. The problem with answering those questions is that choosing the right school is impossible for someone to do for you. They can suggest, point you in the right ...

Tonight I was reading the various student success stories on the Ashford University's Web site in an effort to gain some encouragement and get some perspective. I got both but I also got a little bit of a surprise too, after reading so many success stories I am starting to really see how the ability to study and earn a degree online has ...

First up, I've written about them before and I'm doing it again, but the Harrison Middleton University's College of the Humanities and Sciences has the best looking all around liberal arts doctorate programs I've seen. I love the concept of performing your research based upon readings from the Great Books, many of which have shaped ...

On occasion I will get a question from someone on how to spot a fake school online. Note that I am talking specifically about degree mills, not necessarily unaccredited schools, there is a difference. First let’s define a degree mill, a degree mill is a “school” that will sell you a diploma and usually provide some ...

I was reading in the news today about an organization called
the I-DEA or the Idaho Distance
Education Academy
which is a charter school for parents who wish their kids to stay at home for
school using distance learning methods.
Personally I wish this option had been extended to me as a kid and I
think it is a great thing to ...

I keep hearing on the radio and television about the woes to
come for our economy. So far in North
Texas we really haven’t seen a lot of the impact from the so
called recession but we have started to see some larger businesses begin to brace
themselves for the impact through budget cuts, some hiring freezes, etc. One ...

Many of you may not have heard of the animated television show King of the Hill, suffice to say it is a show loosely based upon a character from Beavis and Butthead. At least I think it’s based off of him, Tom Anderson.Anyways so I’m eating lunch tonight at work and on a television in the room is this cartoon show where a young ...

I sometimes get asked “how do you remember all of that stuff” when talking about tests I’ve taken for computer certifications such as the Comptia A+, Network+ and a bunch of stuff I’ve learned throughout earning my BS and MBA. Honestly there is no one trick or tip that works for everything but there are some that will ...
