What courses can I learn online?
Learn whatever you want, when, and where you want. Sign up for computer science, math, engineering, or humanities courses. You can study at your own pace with full access to course materials through our vast educational catalog. It’s never been easier to lift yourself out of the monotony of the daily grind, pick up a new hobby or skill from home, and grow your academic knowledge (or learn something new!). Then, earn a degree from an accredited university without ever stepping foot on campus or spending a fortune in tuition fees.
On the other hand, certificates are perfect for brushing up on a specific skill or subject area. Choose from more than 1,000 in our catalog. Study independently as you work toward a certificate to show potential employers. Tough economy? This is the time to get your “new skills” certification and show prospective employers that you can learn quickly and get the job done efficiently.
Do you want the flexibility to travel or balance study with family life?
Online education offers just that kind of schedule — without compromising quality (in fact, many schools offer higher quality education with smaller class sizes). So learn on your schedule while still meeting degree requirements.
We’re here to help you select the right program for your needs – no matter what your reason for pursuing an online degree is.There are several benefits of online courses. We’re proud of our track record of helping people like you find the education they need to make a worthwhile investment in their future.

What courses can I learn online?
When looking for a program that is the best fit for you and your educational goals, think about how you want to learn. For example, some learners prefer distance education over attending classes in person. Others choose to attend class with other students and participate in group discussions or computer labs. Many programs also offer flexible schedules for daytime or evening classes. Students in this category include working professionals who need to balance work and study time and those who have family commitments.
How much should I expect to pay for an online degree?
Online degree cost is determined by several factors: the specific program, availability, location, and academic standards. For example, online certificate programs may be more affordable than undergraduate degrees at an accredited institution. A certificate-only bachelor’s degree from an accredited institution costs around $50,000, while online certificates can cost as little as $10-$20 per unit. Distance education programs offer an excellent solution for individuals who want to pursue college studies without choosing between work and school commitments.
How long do I have to complete an online degree program?
Students who enroll in an online program complete their degrees on average in half traditional degrees. Approximately 25% of students that enroll in an online college degree program never finish their programs. The following guidelines for completion: Bachelor’s Degree: 4 years; Master’s Degree: 2 to 3 years;
Doctoral Degree: 4 to 7 years (depending on what type of doctorate you are pursuing and how many non-degree credits you have earned). This is how long it will take if you take a 15-credit load each semester, the average load for most online programs.
