| + | <p> |

| + | doing it to further your career, or get your certification needed to start down a completely |
| + | different career path. Either way, you need to make certain that the degree you earn from |
| + | distance learning comes from an accredited, reputable school, or some [http://www.headhunt.com.sg/ headhunter] may |
| + | not be willing to accept it, and may look over your resume, no matter how good your |
| + | grades were. Yes, you can find a job with a degree earned from a distance learning |
| + | program, but there are some things that can make it much easier for you to do so. |
| + | </p><p> |
| + | It is hard to definitively answer the question about distance learning degrees, as it does |
| + | depend a lot of the distance learning school that you earn your degree from. If you earn a |
| + | degree from a distance learning school that isn’t properly accredited, then odds are, you |
| + | are wasting your time, your money, and your effort. It is extremely important to do your |
| + | homework before choosing a distance learning school, especially for those who are |
| + | seeking a degree or certification that can be used for career advancement. |
| + | </p><p> |
| + | Most employers will accept your degree if it comes from an accredited institution, even a |
| + | distance learning program. Be careful, however, as some distance learning schools are |
| + | accredited by the Distance Education and Training Council, which doesn’t hold to the |
| + | high standards as the six main accreditation agencies do. Do your homework, and don’t |
| + | just believe that the distance learning school you have chosen is accredited without |
| + | finding out for yourself. |
| + | </p><p> |
| + | Different employers view distance learning differently. Some believe that you still |
| + | learned and were tested on the information, so that they have no reason not to hire you or |
| + | accept your degree. Others think that all distance learning programs are a sham, and that |

| + | obtain a degree from a local university. Again, it really does vary. You have no way to |
| + | really know what potential employers think of distance learning degrees until you apply |
| + | and go in for an interview. |
| + | </p><p> |
| + | When you fill out your resume and applications for various employers, list your degree, |
| + | and the organization you obtained it from, but nothing further unless you are specifically |
| + | asked. Some employers may not even associate the school name with a distance learning |
| + | degree, and if they don’t out right ask, you aren’t really required to tell them. |
| + | </p><p> |
| + | Just be well prepared before you go on job interviews, and do your best to impress, |
| + | without dwelling on where your degree came from. You are really trying to impress your |
| + | employer with your current knowledge and attitude, not with the name of your school. In |
| + | most instances, your end result will depend solely on you, and how you conduct yourself |
| + | during the interview. So, keep that in mind when you go job hunting with your distance |
| + | learning degree! |
