Where to pursue an online health care degree?

I am working as a manager in a reputed firm and will be completing my one year the next month. After this I feel that I may be getting a hike but with our firm requiring a health care manager, I feel that it would be best if I can complete a health care management degree to enter into the perspective. What are the other options after I complete my degree in health care management? I need suggestions on universities that are accredited and offer such kind of degrees. I am already looking my options in University of Phoenix but it could be better if I could have a sight at others.

Please do provide your valuable suggestions.

The options that lie before you are indeed good. Since you have a job going, you carry experience and it will be good to make it with a health care management degree. The options are getting into places like health care organizations; hospitals and even many more places. I have found a link that may be useful to you as it has helped my friend in the matter of accreditation….its spam.com online-health-care-degree.html Online health care degree
. It provides you a list of online colleges considering the accreditation thing.

I am not giving an endorsement to them do your research and find the options best for your suititation.
Kaplan online university has a health management program online. I briefly look at it when I was looking to finish my undergrad.

American InterContental University has online programs as well. I did a completion program through them to complete my AA in Business.
I personally would try and find a university that offers online class and is not an internet based university. I have found that the classes I took at AIU are not transferable to most schools (4 classes). I chose to finish at my original university through their continuing education department.

I would look locally for night and hybrid (class/internet) classes to start. This would save you a lot of money in the long run because online universities you cannot get government grants to pay for the classes. You will have to take out student loans or pay out of pocket. If you at least did an AA locally then finished your BA online that alone would save around 25-35 thousand.

Hope this helps, good luck!
