Online Associate Degrees in Education

For a working adult, online associate's degrees in education can be an ideal way to move ahead professionally while you earn a living full-time. Online education allows you to learn and study virtually anytime and anywhere--at your convenience--while providing you with access to qualified instructors and a body of motivated fellow students. The associate's degree can be a great advantage, as it tends to be a focused, practical degree program without the extensive time commitment of a bachelor's degree.

Online associate's degrees in education allow you to focus on a general education curriculum which would include coursework in the sciences, social sciences, arts, and humanities. Other programs include specializations in early childhood education, elementary education, secondary education, or special education. Depending on your concentration, you might study child development, approaches to contemporary education, designing learning activities and educational games, or understanding children with special needs.

With an online associate's degree in education, your potential career paths include teaching in a Head Start program, working as an elementary school paraprofessional, or becoming a teacher's assistant. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, teachers' assistants held over one million jobs in 2004. Those with knowledge of special needs or teaching English as a second language are in especially high demand. Median annual earnings for teachers' assistants were $19,410 in May 2004, and most full-time assistants receive health coverage and other benefits.
