Guide to Reliable Schools, Programs and Universities that offers Online Education

Digital education, distance learning, blended learning – we are already there. The big question now as a student or as a parent is what school offers reliable online programs and courses? What best institution can you count on when it comes to online education?

We would always want the best for our dream courses and literacy, but before jumping into our aimed schools and colleges, we must also consider the objectives of having an online education; factors like:    

• What school offers the kind of instruction that would best suit your child regarding convenience, learning capability, and resources? Regarding convenience and resources, the tough conflict would be limited internet connection, gadget, and budget as well. If it happens to have this problem, the first thing you should consider is the kind of virtual instruction by the school – do they offer modular activities or downloadable lectures to help your child cope up with the lesson, given that you have limited resources at home? Another thing regarding the budget is to find a school/program which considers offering free online education. If not free, you can also consider schools/programs that offer scholarships.
• For college, undergraduates and doctoral degrees, what course would fit you best? And what university offers your preferred course at its best when it comes to online education?  

The Department of Education perseveres in seeking practical solutions and realistic ways to provide effective education that our students need at this point in time. Both the private and public sectors are in the process of developing our reframed curriculum. It is within our choice to choose which institution would fit best our children.

Here is a list of reliable schools, programs, and colleges you should be checking right now:
