 Online Education

 Worldwide Online

Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University Worldwide Online is an integral part of the Worldwide Campus. Online learning provides an opportunity for students whose schedules or geographic location would otherwise prevent them from having the ability to pursue a higher education degree in aviation/ aerospace and related fields.

Online learning eliminates a major barrier that keeps many adults from advancing their education - fitting campus-based classes into their busy schedules. Online learning provides convenience and flexibility. Faculty members assigned to Web-based classes are as accessible and supportive as they are in the classroom, and distance learners develop a strong sense of community and camaraderie through online support groups, e-mail discussion forums, an online help desk and an academic support system.
