    Online degrees can be an excellent way to gain credible qualifications. You do need to do some homework first though. There are may ‘uni’s’ that are just not worth the paperwork. Forget any ‘degree from your lifestyle’ or degree in 7 days cobblers. Best way to ensure that an employer will accept your online degree as credible is to take it with an establishes bricks and mortar college or university. Most of them offer online degrees. Being Non-US shouldn’t be a problem. Also remember many of the best Uni’s are in the UK.

    they do work, but many advanxed or high places wont accept them or look down on them compared to a normal degree. you also have to make sure that the online program is an accredited site or accredited degree. If you have an idea of where you would like to work then you should call them and discuss thier feelings about online education..it is better than nothing and a great starting point for expierence

    I have not seen an online degree in art that is an accredited college. There are a lot of accredited colleges.
    There are also a lot of art schools that are not worth anything at all and are not accredited because of that.

    are growing faster than ever before. According to the Sloan Consortium, a group that studies online education, approximately 3.2 million students took online courses in the 2005 school year–a big increase over the 2.3 million students studying online just one year earlier. As more students seek out online education programs for their ease and convenience, several non-legitimate online universities have sprung up, making some potential students leery of online school in general. Not surprisingly, there is a great deal of confusion about online education. Is an online degree program right for you? How do you pick a good one? Do online degree programs qualify for financial aid? Here is what you need to know to make a smart online education decision.
    People from all walks of life are choosing to take online courses for many different reasons. Retirees pick subjects that have always interested them but they never had the chance to study. Soldiers overseas and at home take advantage of military financial aid benefits provided by the U.S. government to pursue online degrees. Businesspeople work toward their degrees in their free time to gain skills that can earn them promotions. Students at brick and mortar universities increasingly take online courses as part of their degree programs.
    People choose online degree programs over traditional programs for three main reasons: flexibility, convenience, and financial sense. In most online programs, your work can be completed whenever it is convenient for you, from any location. The programs can be tailored to your own changing timetable, and you are not tied down to a rigid class schedule. Online courses may be fiscally smart because students save on the cost of commuting to college campuses several times a week. Those with families may save on child care as well. Also, it is much easier for students to continue working full-time jobs as they pursue their education.
