Speaking of the UK which is considered as the world's leading education provider need to design their online courses in such a manner that it upholds the same quality and recognition like the traditional colleges.

Rajay Naik, CEO of the education marketing and online learning service at Keypath Education, said,

“how effective methods for online learning will enable the country to uphold its status as a global education leader.”

He even added

“There is a fundamental difference between a free, short, unaccredited course and a formal, fee-paying, degree-accredited programme that delivers a significant certificate or degree at the end of it, and we must make sure that we never make that distinction unclear or blurred.”

75% of the candidates opting for higher education are mostly from the professional background who wish to pursue higher education to get promoted or even update their skillset. They won't go back to the campus learning session to earn their skills. Online education is the only mode they can look up to. This report was published by The Online College Students 2015.

Moreover online educators are providing degrees within 6 months of their course schedule which is now been an added advantage for the online learners compared to the traditional campus degrees which at least take 3 years to earn it. According to the present news, Google is now backing a scheme to get people a "nano degree" in just six months.

The Quality Matters
