In Canada, there are many online programs available for students to complete in the comfort of their own home. This is a great option for someone who is working, has a family, or doesn't have the time or desire to attend a physical institution.
How do I know which program to choose?
It can be like looking for a needle in a hay stack when it comes to finding the right online program. Make sure you do your research! An important thing to look for is to make sure the program is accredited. The accreditation process ensures that education received within a program is acceptable and meets standards to produce qualified individuals. Employers may also state in job postings that they require applicants to have education from an accredited program and/or from an accredited institution. A non-accredited degree could mean you don't get the job!
