When COVID-19 forced school closures across the nation, students and educators at every level were left to grapple with the idea of online learning. As technology advanced and institutions invested in online education, however, many higher education students might have found themselves considering earning an online degree for the first time.
Online college has some great benefits, from a flexible schedule to the ability to work from anywhere. Even so, if you’re considering the best online degrees for you, you might think going online means settling for a degree in a certain field. Not true.
These days, you can even earn trade school degrees online and get hands-on experience. Check out just a few of the degrees you can earn online below.
