University Of Arizona Online
Business BA degree from University of Phoenix worth it? Do employers consider ‘online degrees’ low blow?
I have attended Arizona State University for 2.5 yrs, but now i work full time & it’s hard to do both work & full time. Therefore I was wondering about online classes (Univerity of Phx). I’ve read questions & comments regarding University of Phoenix as not being worth it (cost more than it’s worth too). But I read the UofPhx is accredited university. Do employers take that in consideration?
They are great… if they are regionally accredited. Some are not and are academically meaningless such as Almeda, Kennedy Western, Warren National.
That being said, UOP is accredited, which is critical. However, they are very expensive compared to others. Look at the Penn State online program instead for a better name and a better price.
To gain regional accreditation, these programs have to have “highly qualified” faculty, primarilly with doctorates, which they do. There degrees will qualify you for employment for any organization with a competent HR department.
So Step one in your research is to verify that the university you are looking at is REGIONALLY ACCREDITED. You can verify the accreditation here: http://www.chea.org/search/
Also, an HR department will accept your degree if you are qualified for the position. There are some old dinosaurs out there that are fearful of technology and online degrees, but not many
