My degree is still in progress. On teaching interviews, this so far not has been an issue. Although the coursework is online, we do have 500 face to face residency hours with faculty members from the University at various areas throughout the country. These hours enable us to attend workshops on clinical skills, as well as preparing for our dissertations. We are held to the same standards in our coursework as other doctoral students.

Here's a question: how has your degree from Walden been received when you interview for teaching positions? What questions do interviewers have for you and how do you respond to them?

The required courses are similar to those at land-based Universities. We do have to conduct empirical research for our dissertation which could either be quantitative, qualitative, or mixed-methods. I'd be happy to answer specific questions about the coursework and training Albert Bramante [EMAIL PROTECTED] (mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]) In a message dated 4/22/2008 9:28:33 A.M.
