@ akason: I'm currently in my 3rd Module International Management (Oil and Gas Track) University of Liverpool. The fees are not cheap (app $19,000; depending on your payment plan) and its accredited worldwide. In my class, I have CEOs and Managing Directors of Multinationals as classmates and we interact through a forum quite like this (its called a blackboard). If you want to learn, go to the schools website http://www.liv.ac.uk/study/online/ and request a call back. If you just want a degree without working hard, look elsewhere because when you start,you will see your assignments in your dreams... grin

FEMARY1: Pixmix thanks for this info God bless you.I check on both sites,globalcourses admission is dissabled.Please how much is the fees?Please can you throw more lights on this programmes?

agh yeah just checked. well maybe their changing site or maybe their admissions is closed? not sure best to get in touch with them. and oscail is another great point to check out, but their site is also disabled and moved to main dcu site so bit hard to find, as dcu is over-sized lipsrsealed another good site to look for degree and qualification degrees is www.icslearn.co.uk , but id say they are waaaaaaay to expensive. but could be considered as well. their site wasnt working well recently too.

Hahahaa. Very funny, but very true. University of Liverpool, Information Systems Management, (6th Module and final core course). I have 2 electives left before my dissertation. After this, I'm going on a loooooooooong vacation. This program has taken over my life completely. To those who say it's a blue milk run, I challenge you to enroll and let us observe your grades and how much sleep you get after your first module.

I think online learning is a suitable system for the working professionals. They get a feature education among the busy life that include full time employment, family responsibilities and household tasks too. RSA Certificate Melbourne

otinwa: online university is the new tread globally. The first FREE ONLINE UNIVERSITY is University of the People, USA @ www.uopeople.org

Im currently a student (studing COMPUTER SCIENCE) and i must tell u that is not easy and cheap. When u apply, you must fill all required form online and answer 5 out of 7 essay. Thereafter, u will send your WAEC or NECO result (photocopy notarised) and a WAEC scratch card for confirmation of ur result online.

When u are finally accepted, u must sign an agreement form online. Then u have to take two compulsory orietation course:
1: skill for online learning- GS1101
2: English composition- 1 GS1101.
U must pass the two course to proceed for further studies.
Each course is split into week/unit with a topic from the syllabus weekly. U must enter class room ( called VLE - virtual learning environment), make entry in Learning journal what u read or learning everyday, read all reading assignment for the week, submit your weekly assignment, participate in the discussion forum and take self quiz.

There are strict with time and serious code of conduct. Once the week is gone, is gone, u cant go back again for late assignment. All the above contribute 70% and exam only takes 30%. U can see the different with brick and mortal university.

if there certificate is not recognised now, later 9ja will accept it. They are back by UN, HP, many foundation and great university. There lecturer are voluntary lecturers from other great university in the world. They accept student worldwide. The university is FREE TUITION for now but will collect $50 for application process fees soon. For more info visit www.uopeople.org

I believe this post is some what different but being a person benefited from online education I would like to share some facts about online education
- In the U.S. it is believed that many traditional education universities may go bankrupt mainly because of online education in the next 15 years.
- It is estimated that around 7 million took an online course in 2012 and that is in the U.S. alone, the world figures are much higher.
- Pheonix and other online institutes are renowned in world and provide credibility in online education
-The online education industry itself is worth more than $4.1 trillion.
- Online education programs like accredited life experience degree are becoming preferable by employers.

Online distance learning is not cheap and its not for the faint-hearted person.

Distance learning involves self discipline, proper time management, and most importantly "academic honesty". If you as a student 'copy and paste' answers without proper referencing, you will be expelled from the school with immediate effect and your name blacklisted for plagiarism.

For those who think its easy or still in-doubt kindly join the Mba or MPhil program of Anglia Ruskin university.
Re: How Valuable Is Online Degree? by oginga: 11:26pm On Nov 10, 2014
wiseguy:
Easy Says who? Online degree is the most difficult. More difficult than being on campus. You wont understand till you start one. Very stressful. Infact forget about all the Owambe's by the time you start and pray to Almighty to give you the courage and determination to finish + make good grades. If you say its easy then you don't know exactly what it is. I am saying from experience. And its fully recognized both at home and abroad.
