Studies in distance education

Has anyone completed a masters or a graduate certificate in distance education such as this one?

I'm curious as to what career prospects there would be after completing such a program.

FTR, I also hold a B.Ed. in secondary ed.

I did my masters through Capella, and now I'm working on my doctoral dissertation at Capella as well. Obviously since I'm still at school and a sahm, I haven't gotten to the "career" part of it yet.

Hmm interesting AllyRae. What do you plan on doing with the Masters and PhD once you graduate? Are you aiming for a specific field or organization?

My masters and PhD were in counseling education with a focus on autism interventions. I actually did a lot of volunteer work at an autism school between my masters and PhD (prior to my masters, I was a behavior specialist). So, I'll likely stay in the field of autism research. I'm actually wanting to do research or teach with the degree...
