Associate Online Degree Programs | Another Success Story
Janet Ward is a 50-year-old single mother of three children who worked as a paralegal for several years before heading back to the classroom in a very non-traditional way.
She found Limestone College’s Internet Management degree program, and never looked back.
She works at the college’s Eastwood Library, maintaining its Web site during the day, and plans to graduate next month with a bachelor of science degree in computer science and Internet management with a concentration in Web development.
Then she’s off to get her master’s degree.
Here’s a quote from her:
“You know, I’m a single parent, and it’s wonderful to work at your own pace. There are so many benefits to online courses, and the way the program was developed, I’m more than comfortable going into the outside world with the knowledge I have.”
Ward said the coursework required her to develop and maintain a Web site from scratch, to set up computer hardware and to act as a system administrator.
The Virtual Campus for Limestone was created by Doug Hulsey in 1997 and continues to teach the Internet Management courses. The program offers five bachelor of science degrees, an associate of arts degree and 24 majors. Limestone offers new online courses every eight weeks.
The Virtual Campus program began with between 30 and 40 students, and now around 2,000 students take online courses through Limestone.
Way to go, Janet, and Limestone!
