online learning becoming popular

It was a lovely surprise to meet my good friends, who were back from Bangkok for a short trip. Liz had been away in Bangkok for more than a year after her husband got posted to take over a department in a foreign bank. Being someone who couldn't sit around and do nothing, she took up a distance learning course to keep her mind active. I thought that was a good idea.

Distance learning or online learning has become very popular over the last few years due to its sheer convenience and flexibility for those who need the extra freedom and versatility. This also explains why capella university is growing in its student database with the online degree programs. Courses conducted in Capella include business, information technology, education, human services, public health, public safety, and psychology and the online Uni currently has more than 20,000 students from all 50 states and 56 countries, and still growing.
