Advantages
Erikson distance learning programs take geography out of the equation and allow you to participate online wherever you live and work. But there are many other benefits to online learning.

• You adapt your study schedule to your lifestyle and learning style. You can do your weekly coursework when it's most convenient for you, and in several short sessions rather than fixed three-hour classes.
• Course material is available 24/7. You can complete readings and assignments at your own pace, and unlike traditional classroom lectures, you can go back and review materials presented at any time.
• You have time to reflect before commenting in class discussion, and you can add insights that occur to you later. This leads to deeper, more engaging class discussions with your peers and professors.
• Many students feel more comfortable commenting without all eyes in the classroom focused on them. This allows for broader participation and richer conversations online.
