Nova Southeastern University Online/Distance programs

Nova Southeastern University is the 10th largest independent university in the country and a pioneer of non-traditional approaches to high-quality education. NSU has been included on Princeton Review's list of The Best Online/Distance Learning Graduate Schools.

Nova Southeastern University offers several of its degree programs through Online/distance education delivery systems. At Nova Southeastern University, Online/distance education refers to classes delivered at or to sites outside the Fort Lauderdale area. For example, classes held at cluster sites in Dade or Palm Beach counties, as well as sites in another state or country, are considered distance education sites.

The modes of instructional delivery for classes off-campus do not necessarily differ from those used on-campus. Many of the University's distance education classes use the traditional classroom setting. Others use telecommunication technologies exclusively, or in combination with a classroom setting. In addition, distance education students have access to educational support services through the Davie Campus, such as the electronic library, the Internet, and computer software on central servers.

Get Early Childhood Education Degree Online

Western Governors University, the only all-online teachers college to earn NCATE accreditation, is now enrolling students for its new B.A. in Early Childhood Education degree program. The program, which focuses on development and education of children from birth through third grade, provides a degree and certification path for individuals who are currently working with young children as well as those who wish to become teachers in daycare centers, preschools, and primary elementary school grades.

Despite the growing need for degreed professionals in this field, online programs are rare, and WGU offers the only all-online bachelor's degree program designed to prepare students for initial licensure as classroom teachers. For many individuals who are currently working in daycare centers and preschools, work schedules, family obligations, and finances make it difficult, if not impossible, to attend a conventional college or university to earn a degree. WGU provides these individuals -- as well as those who want to start a career or change careers -- an affordable, accessible, and practical way to meet their educational goals.

WGU's Teachers College is one of the nation's largest teacher preparation schools, with students in all 50 states. Its unique competency-based model is ideal for working adults who have professional experience and prior education, allowing them to complete their degrees more quickly without compromising quality.
