Does an online degree certificate hold the same value as a traditional degree?

User 1
It really depends on the institution. If it’s from a reputable university, then yes, it holds value.

User 2
I agree with user 1. The reputation of the institution is the key. I also think the field of study plays a role.

I earned my degree online while working full-time, which helped me apply my learning directly to my job. My employer valued my ability
to balance both.

User 4
I’m not so sure. I’ve heard some employers still view online degrees as “easier” or less rigorous than traditional ones.

User 5
But what about networking? One of the biggest advantages of a traditional degree is the connection you make. Can online degrees
provide the same networking opportunities?

User 6
Networking is harder online, but it’s not impossible. Many online programs have discussion forums and virtual events.

I think the value of any degree, online or traditional comes down to what you make of it.
