How to Use an Online Master's Degree

It does not matter whether you got your Master's Degree from an online accredited university or college or a physical accredited university or college, according to College Confidential. The only difference is how you attain the degree. Online Master's Degree programs allow you to work at your own pace from home. This allows for a lot more flexibility because you don't have to attend classes in person at preset times. But because you earned your online from an accredited institution, it still holds the same weight as earning a degree in a traditional classroom setting at an accredited institution. This offers benefits when when applying for jobs, negotiating for raises at your current job, working towards a promotion or networking.
