Just remember, it is unaccredited. So be careful about putting it on (or deciding to leave it off) a resume.

Yes I’m aware, can’t go wrong with the price. I will definitely be adding to my resume and the letters after my name.

So from what I am reading here you really want the degree to put "letters after your name" ? Just curious why what is the goal here ? Trying to score a new job , promotion, or just to boost your credentials?

I’m actually enjoying the content, and if it leads to “letters after my name” then so be it,  Not sure what I’m going to do with the degree yet, probably teach if that’s an option.

The problem here isnt just the lack of accreditation, as no doubt there are unaccredited outfits that offer quality education. The issue is that these degrees are essentially diploma mill programs, with insufficient instruction, measurement, or duration. The "PhD" program in particular is a total joke.

Out of curiosity, are you also enrolled in this program?

I am not sure how well respected that degree will be in the academic field besides maybe teaching at a local church Sunday school. I wish you the best on your journey to seek "letters after your name." I respect your education decision, but I know that employers and academic institutions will look at an unaccredited degree negatively.

Thanks. This will sit nicely next to my current PhD and DBA. Have a great day!

I am sure it will;  hopefully, they are accredited as well. Have a fantastic day, and best of luck with your next degree.
