I wouldn't recommend Penn Foster, because they're only nationally accredited.

Any master's really. I think it would depend on what direction she ends up leaning. I like to think of an AAS as the nitty-gritty of any trade occupation, it's where you learn how to do your job. The business degree earned mostly via testing/distance learning is a very affordable bonus to anyone in any AAS occupation- literally I don't think I can think of an example of a trade occupation what wouldn't benefit from a business degree as their check the box degree (not that every AAS owner needs a check the box degree, but if you want one, and your own field doesn't offer a bachelor's option, this is a great one to have)
I think she could do her AAS and Bachelors at the same time, earning both in 2 years no problem. I also think that at that point, it's worth leaving the classroom and hitting the ground for some work experience. You don't really know or understand the scope of opportunities until you're "in" the field a while. Just ask a nurse how many ways there are to use your RN, or ask a chef how many ways there are to use your training. Once you get a feel for what you want, you can see what kind of master's makes sense. Maybe it's for teaching, maybe it's for pleasure, maybe it's for landing a job with a big company, or maybe it's to fine tune your art - or business skills. You don't really know this early in the game. Heck, it might even be a complete waste of time/money. But, either way, lots of opportunities!
