Online schooling

It is not like that that online schooling is bad. it is tougher but it give you lots of expirience for taking decision in your life. In online schooling you learn lots of that how to come out of problem you facing.

I think as long as you've gotten the degree from a reputable institution you should be okay. I have an online teaching certification from an institution in the UK. Most international schools recognize it, but in the states it's not really worth much. Looking back, I wish I had gone with a more well-known program. At any said rate, the credential is still valid. And as long as you have transcripts, and verification of the degree, you have nothing to worry about.

Hi Baileycow,

I also have online schooling and it was never a hindrance when I applied for a job. It makes no difference really, in terms of academically and how professionals see it. It was just different due to some factors.

For one, online schooling might detach you from the real world, at least for the time being. When you are already looking for a job, or when you are already working, there might be a culture shock as you expose yourself more to the real world.

It was a challenge to me at first but I learned to cope up. You'll get through it, I know.

There is an important aspect to online education -- you miss peer interaction. Many skills automatically sharpened when you are in a group, and you learn more. Online activity is primarily a solo affair. You are missing people skill when busy online. I still enjoy reading a book or newspaper more than reading something on computer screen. There is a different atmosphere when you are listening to a lecture actually sitting in a group. You too gain clarity when others ask questions and hear the answers. Then there is the scope for discussion -- something not quite convenient online.
