Every time I see a commercial for University of Phoenix, I see a major disclaimer about the transferability of the credits from there. Does not sound like that applies to your degree program ...

Jen, if you're hoping to move on to a Doctorate and other stuff, do not use U Phoenix online.  It's a degree mill and you may get get Masters based on work experience and a few hundred dollars.  I've heard more bad than good about that place.

Not true.  More and more people around here are getting their degrees from them.  They are well respected as a University.  they are an accredited college and you do actually have to do work in order to obtain your Masters.  I have no desire to achieve my Doctorate.  I made sure I researched them before sending my info in.  I was worried about the online thing, but it seems to not matter.  There are "online Universities" where you do just send in money to get a degree, but they are not one of them.

Sometimes HR stands for Human Retards.  It sounds as if you are dealing with one.  Document, document and document everything you send to them.

Have you thought about doing your masters on line?

All the way, sir!!!

And yes, see my post from yesterday.  I am getting my Masters online.

Well, 2 years and 2 months later, I can now say I have achieved my goal of obtaining my Masters in Management/Human Resources Management.  It was a tough program and I am so glad to be finished so now I can focus on remodeling our house. 

I will be walking during the June graduation ceremony so now I can just sit back and relax!

Congratulations.  Hopefully you can use your Master in HRM.  I never did officially.  Although it is fun to play with the minds of our HR staff here when I know more than they do.

I have 12 years of HR experience and I am the Human Resources Manager for a large non-profit so I use my skills every day.  Many of my classmates received their Masters in HR with no HR experience.  It was very frustrating to work with people who never have had formal HR experience.

Congratulations on achieving your Masters goal, Jen.

As you might recall, I too work for a not-for-profit agency.

Degrees are very big in our field.

All the way, sir!!!
