Internet Electronic And Distance Education

November 24, 2008 By admin

Using online schools to qualify for a degree used to be a method that had a certain stigma, or it was a situation where college credit for online schools was not looked at in the same level of difficulty. Electronic delivery is becoming a new rage in the world of education. It used to be if you wanted to get an education then you had to attend in person, in a bricks and mortar classroom, with a teacher, fellow students and a set time to attend class every week.

As a student, using Internet and Distance learning programs allow you to design your schooling around your schedule. It used to be easier to tell if a person had completed distance-learning courses but anymore it is considered equally. Many Servicemembers do not realize that they qualify for such a college level coursework credit so it comes as a pleasant surprise. Now, much has changed and the educational community, as well as the United States Military has moved to embrace the Internet and online educational delivery trend. There are DANTES, and CLEP testing opportunities available for those that want to take advantage of them. You can take advantage of military financial aid, and increase your pay and promotion potential. The methods of delivery and going to school while in the military are adaptive and gives you the flexibility to complete your lessons when your duty schedule allows. There are many programs that allow you flexibility, perhaps the greatest flexibility comes with programs you can access on the Internet. They are available anywhere you can get to a computer, at whatever time you are able to. One of the surprise benefits for many Servicemembers is that their military service record qualifies them for college credit. It doesn?t matter if you are in the National Guard, Marine Corps, Navy, Army, Air Force, or United States Coast Guard, there are different programs that will allow you college credit, and external college courses that will give you flexibility.

Are you interested in an exciting career in the Military? See if you qualify. Click Here Now!

Training has been standardized for purposes of college credit in many of the services, and as such it is possible to get college credit for time you have spent on active duty and in training. As a United States Military Servicemember, you are often called to duty stations that take a great amount of your time.
