During the webinar, Colonel Angley will discuss the value of online education for both active and former service members, who must face the challenge of completing a college degree while balancing the responsibilities of military service. Webinar participants will leave with a broad understanding of how online education works, the pros and cons of online learning, how to apply transfer credits, and how online programs can provide the resources and flexibility necessary to help students achieve their goals.

Test Drive College Online (TDCO) is a revolutionary new program that allows qualified students the opportunity to "test drive" an online course and, upon completion, transfer credits earned to a degree program, potentially saving them thousands of dollars in tuition.
