  Any suggestion for online DBA
Posted by: doyouhowdo1 - 03-24-2024, 01:17 PM - Forum: Doctorate Degree Discussion - Replies (35)

Hello everyone. I will finish my online MBA with Cardiff Met this September. I know some of you saw my post I created about the UCAM DBA. Which clearly I don't want to do anything with that unofficial DBA.
I need help with using a online DBA that must be recognized by Hong Kong and/or New Zealand. The cost can be anything lower than 30000USD. I saw many university in the U.S do offer online DBA, but they didn't say they will accept international student. For example, Liberty University.
I did look at the DBA degee in HK, the cost is way too high and the NZ university required me to travel there even though it says it is distance learning.
The problem with Malaysia university, they required me to learn Malay. Which clearly I think i will never pass their language test. With the Philippines university, by looking at the forums, the U.S only recognized the Doctorate degree as a master level, so I don't want to do that. I have look for DBA for months on Internet. But still cant decide which one is right for me


I have also looked at platform like Upgrab, etc. Most of the program offered have been discussed in the fourm, which shows that doesn't get a good review. So I want something that is safe, fully online, no exam and recognized by most wealthy country. Am I asking too much only wanting to pay 30000USD?

  Czech 100% online MBA and DBA for 3k/5k
Posted by: David1477 - 03-24-2024, 01:53 AM - Forum: Graduate School Discussion - Replies (7)

I found a very interesting offer: https://www.businessinstitut.eu/program-...ent-online

Their list of accreditations is very long and some of them look meaningful, but I am not 100% sure if they are legit.

3600€ for an online MBA in english. It seems accredited too.

Their online DBA is around 5k. What do you guys think ? Any red flags ?

Seems to be ACBSP accredited:
https://acbsp.org/members/?id=27045128

Also:

Business Institut is accredited by the Ministry of Interior of the Czech Republic under § 30 par. 5 of Act no. as an educational institution under accreditation number AK / I-47/2014, proceedings number MV-138186-4 / ODK-2014.

  Degree Planning- MS degree
Posted by: dodek101 - 03-23-2024, 09:17 PM - Forum: Degree Planning Advice - Replies (8)

Location: New Jersey, USA
Age:45
What kind of degree do I want?:
MS in Cybersecurity, AI or Computer Science, open to suggestions
 
Current Regional Accredited Credits:
TESU - BSBA General Management (2021) 120 credits 2.80 GPA
TESU - ASNSM Computer Science (2021) 60 credits

Certifications:
A+, N+, S+, AWS Cloud Practitioner
IBM Cybersecurity Analyst Professional Certificate- Coursera
Google Project Management: Professional Certificate- Coursera
Google IT Fundamentals Professional Certificate- Coursera
TEEX- a lot of cert in cybersecurity
 
Budget: I have a max of $8K saved up.

Commitments: I currently work full time and can work on my studies part time or in the evenings/weekends.


Timeline: I plan to finish the courses required for the degree in 2-3 years, taking two courses per semester.

Tuition assistance/reimbursement: Yes, my workplace offers tuition reimbursement. I receive $815 per graduate credit, based on the grade received for the course: A-100%, B-75%, C-50%.

 
My goal is to use the tuition reimbursement program to advance my career in IT public sector.
After graduating from TESU, I secured a position in local government as an IT help desk technician, and I have been in that role for two years now. I have not yet applied to any graduate schools and am unsure where to start. My biggest concern about being accepted into graduate MS programs is my low GPA and the fact that my BA is not in the field of Computer Science.

My question is, which online schools should I consider applying to?
Are there any alternative ways to earn credits?
Should I improve my GPA somehow to be considered by graduate schools?"
Out of those three majors, Cybersecurity, AI, or Computer Science, which one would be more attainable?
Any suggestions and questions are welcome.

  I defended my dissertation!
Posted by: soliloquy - 03-23-2024, 08:14 PM - Forum: Graduate School Discussion - Replies (17)

I'm excited. I defended, and my committee concluded by calling me a Doctor. I finished ahead of schedule. I attended a private non-profit university, and it was a great experience! It's hard to believe I came here 11 years ago trying to figure out how to finish my AA degree, and now I am finishing my doctorate. Every time I have an academic accomplishment, I think about how much I learned from this board!

  Has anyone tried recognizing ENEB/UC1 or UoPeople degrees in Australia?

Has anyone tried recognizing ENEB/UC1 or UoPeople degrees in Australia?

It seems like you need to use https://www.vetassess.com.au/ for immigration purposes. But a thousand dollars is really a lot. 

As far as I know, vetassess might have some kind of partnership with enic/naric from Europe. And might so similar assessments, so if enic/naric in Europe/UK evaluate favorably, that vetassess should do so too. I have no idea if it makes sense.

  Masters Degree in Texas
Posted by: Melhux - 03-23-2024, 08:25 AM - Forum: Degree Planning Advice - Replies (3)

Hello! I am looking for a relatively easy masters program in Texas. The reason the university must be in Texas is I adopted my daughters from foster care in Texas and the state has a program that state tuition is waived. They will have a bachelor in Organizational Leadership from Texas A & M Commerce.

  Kairos University Masters in Counseling
Posted by: Wnt2BLPC - 03-23-2024, 12:48 AM - Forum: Graduate School Discussion - Replies (10)

Greetings, everyone, this is my first post as I have referenced this board occasionally rather than posting. Anyway, I am about to complete my bachelor's in Psychology from an accredited school and intend to enroll in a master's program for mental health counseling to be an LPC. The thing that gave me trepidation was the cost of CACREP programs until I came across a non-CACREP program at Kairos University. They have a masters in Counseling which said I would be eligible to be an LPC in my state of Texas. 
Do any of you know someone who has gone to Kairos and become an LPC after graduating from there? How did they describe the program pace, classes, workload, professors, etc? How long did it take? What additional steps were needed to be taken after graduation knowing it wasn't CACREP accredited? Did jobs readily hire the person for counseling jobs after graduation despite no accreditation? Do you know of other Non-CACREP schools that are just as affordable as Kairos University? 
If this has been answered before, my apologies. Smile Thank you in advance for any advice you can give.

I am a licensed MSN prepared Psych NP looking for a terminal degree that is clinically focused. Purposely avoiding dissertations, capstones, DNP, etc.
ASU DBH w/ an internship is very appealing, though $90k gives pause. Anyone aware of similar programs for a lower price. Thank you!
