What Attendees Are Saying

I enrolled in this course to gain greater insight into the administration of online learning, as I am leading the development of a strategic plan for distance education on my campus. The Online Education Administration course provided valuable insight into the many facets of the leadership of online education initiatives. The instructor maintained an active presence throughout the course and provided valuable feedback at each step. I look forward to staying in contact with colleagues I have met in this course. The knowledge and skills I have developed will be of direct benefit to my role within my university as the Director of Distance Education.
