Soror it's the same thing with folks attending physical campuses. I know that when I'm done there are folks that are going to look at my degree versus someone that graduated from let's say Duke and the first thing that is going to catch their eye is the school. Now I may be much better trained (may I don't know anyone from Duke) but that's going to be evaluated against WHERE I did the work.
There are some online programs, as we've all agreed on, that don't require much physical contact and for those fields that's great. But for those where it would only seem logical where you HAD to interact with people and you DID NOT do so I'm gonna wonder how much you really know versus how much I'm gonna have to teach you. Lack of practical knowledge in some situations will make my eyebrow furrow wondering what exactly you did in school ROFL. It's not really about them bettering themselves for me but the harsh reality of the job market. Now if you are just getting another degree to get a raise on your current job then I guess it doesn't matter too much. However, if you are getting said degree to either move up or move on then you have to consider how the degree will be viewed longterm.
