Online courses offer two very important benefits.
First, they offer you far more flexibility in terms of scheduling the time when you will work on the course. Secondly, all of the course work can be completed at the location of your choosing. However, distance education courses require that you read well and learn well by reading, are self-disciplined and can manage your time effectively, are able to work independently, and have the appropriate background for the course. In addition, the opportunity for interaction with other students may be different from that in a traditional classroom. It is suggested that you review the Online Self-Evaluation Form to further assist you in this decision.
