Officials at Chadron State College in Nebraska are pleased with the increasing popularity of their online masters degree programs. The higher enrollment has been welcomed, and every online graduate student who completes 36 credit hours generates $8500 in revenue for the institution.

Expanding the college's typical service region online is especially helpful for school like Chadron which are located in sparsely populated service regions. When online education first came on the scene, a lot of traditional institutions dismissed the notion, but Chadron was an early adopter in the late 1990s. That means the college has years of experience in delivering online courses and degree programs, with courses that feature a mix of online and face-to-face instruction. The number of older students enrolling in the online masters degree programs is soaring, as these are mainly adult learners who are looking to career development.

Career advice service has been made redundant as local authorities in UK, drastically reduce funding and replace it with, online career advice. The survey was made by the Institute of Career Guidance, from data collected from 340 Connexion staff, providing career advice.
Almost 17 % of them said that the entire career advice service, in their area had shut down or was due to close.
According to the institute president, Steve Higginbotham, it can be concluded from the findings of the survey, that the career advice service has been hard hit, by the cuts.
According to Unison, the public sector trade union, jobs of 8000 staff have been cut and more cuts were in the offing. Such cuts to career advice service were more severe, in the public sector.
In Norfolk, face to face career advice service has been cut drastically, and in Leeds, the service providers are working only part time.
Further, entitlement funding, of career advice service of schools and colleges, have also been reduced drastically.
