Description

Distance learning is an increasingly popular and practical alternative to standard classroom training for students seeking to launch careers or make career changes. This book will get them started. Updated with the latest information on educational facilities and the distance learning programs they offer, the Guide to Distance Learning lists hundreds of prominent colleges and universities, as well as accredited correspondence training centers in the United States and Canada. Schools offer degrees and certificates in a wide range of courses, including art and design, computer science, health services, journalism, philosophy, psychology, management, human resources, public affairs and administration, social work, teacher education, and many, many more. Descriptions of facilities include facts and figures on admission requirements, courses offered, tuition and fees, credits and degrees granted, mailing addresses, e-mail addresses, and fax and phone numbers. Two indexes at the back of the book provide quick reference to descriptions of distance learning centers. One index is arranged regionally by state or province—the other, according to field of study.
