About Baker's Guide to Christian Distance Education
Approximately one hundred years ago Moody Bible Institute launched the modern Christian distance education movement by offering independent study courses in theology.

- What are the benefits of distance learning?
- How do online classes work?
- What levels of Web-based classes exist?
- Are scholarships available?
- Do employers accept degrees earned through distance education?
Baker describes the typical online learning experience, explains the importance of accreditation, and offers practical tips for succeeding as a distance learner. The book's directory of accredited distance learning institutions contains a wealth of relevant information including costs and descriptions of available programs.
Anyone interested in seeking an advanced degree, finishing a college degree, or expanding their educational background will find Baker's Guide a valuable resource, as will home schooling parents looking for curriculum options.
