Are accreted online schools such as capella and walden universitys respected in the business world?
I attend Capella and it is NOT a diploma mill. It will take me three years to complete my PhD. I spend upwards of 8 hours per week per course on my studies. I’ve learned quite a lot in the five courses I’ve taken. The PhD is a true research degree. Capella is accredited by the same accrediting body as Michigan State, Purdue, University of Illinois, and the rest of the Midwestern schools. Most of the students want to teach upon completion of their degree. In fact, a lot already teach with their master’s degree and know the value of a PhD. There are many ways to earn a PhD. Some are more convenient that others. There isn’t a PhD program at the University in business in my town. So, an online degree is my only route. If you are concerned about online degrees check out just about any brick and mortar school; they probably offer an online degree program or at least online classes. It is the wave of the future. Those enrolled in online programs now will be the teaches and leaders of tomorrow
