Online Degrees and Employer Perception

A degree from our DEAC accredited institution may be the right move to help you work towards professional success in the career of your choosing. Our online degree programs are convenient and offer the same benefits as a degree earned in a traditional setting. An online degree can be synchronous or asynchronous, guided, or self-paced.  We deliver our degree content asynchronous or self-paced which allows you to train from home at your own pace and, for many people, this benefit is crucial to their ability to complete a degree. Employers understand and respect this.

Is an Online Degree as Good as a Regular Degree?

Students who opt for remote learning will get the same knowledge from their classes at their own pace in a way that's more convenient. U.S. Career Institute degree programs hold students and course materials to the same standards as traditional colleges.

Do Employers Care If You Have an Online Degree?

Employers treat an online degree with as much respect as a traditional degree.
