Dr. Pamela Pease, the president of Jones International University, and Brian Meuller, the CEO of the University of Phoenix Online, gave an recent interview about the value of online colleges. They both discuss the benefits and drawbacks for different types of students enrolled in online degree programs.They both readily admit that online degree programs might not be right for all students, like those seeking extracurricular activities and a campus environment. However, for adults already invested in careers and looking to make a step forward, online colleges might be the ticket to success.
Regional accreditation is important in determining the value of an online degree, they say. They also discuss how networking with teachers and peers happens in an online learning environment with small teacher-student ratios to help students get ahead in the real world.
