Distance Learning Coordinators

Advancement Prospects

Distance learning coordinators with four or more years of experience may advance to become senior coordinators. They will have increasingly demanding responsibilities, such as managing a larger staff and handling a greater number of projects. With years of management experience, they can move up to become head of the distance learning department, where they may be more involved in developing new distance education programs and overseeing more staff to implement these plans. Those who work full time for schools may leave their positions to start their own consultancies. Those who only have a bachelor's degree advance by furthering their education and getting a graduate degree.
