It depends, do you want a piece of paper at the end? If yes, than probably not.

>>2126809
Preferably, but not necessarily. I'd be happy to pay for the certificate at the end, provided the fee isn't ridiculous.

Not 100% sure about this link -

Try and find a legit torrent for that. You obviously won't get a piece of paper for this, but it is the best torrent in the world, not even joking. Each course is a university level course which usually costs upwards of 900 dollars, each course comes with a pdf study guide with questions and what not.

^ lot's of free and pay courses online from some of the top universities in the world, MIT, Harvard, Berkely. Some you have to pay for but are very, very reasonable ($50 per course and you get a piece of paper, how reliable that piece of paper is though is up for debate). Is a great website regardless.

edx seems good, but there isn't any European History at the moment, which is a shame.

That torrent looks like an absolute goldmine. Thanks!

just browse /his/ memes and greentexts for your history knowledge

If I recall there was a Joe organ podcast with the Canadian Psychologist and he was dicussing that a professor was planning on doing a online degree program but the catch would only the top 10% of the class would get a degree.

Downloaded on of the course on Victorian Britain and I only got two of the 12 lectures. Pretty annoying.

I got a BA in History for Thomas Edison State University for free. Granted my employer payed for but it would of been very cheap other wise.

>25 CLEPs and DSSTs for most credits

>Capstone course
~$1k

How did you get your employer to pay for a history degree? What do you do?

The Open University obviously

A lot of corporations do this. Most will require you to maintain a certain GPA, cap on how many classea you can take in a year, and will require a certain obligation to stay.

>What do you do?
I do IT in the Army. They paid for my IT training and certifications as well as my exams and classes for my History degree. All I do is re-image computers and make accounts while documenting my work. There's a lot of suck but I did get a BA and an IT career at 22.


My sister had the same thing being a barista at Starbucks and my friend said they were paying for his Philosophy degree at AT&T. Also, a lot of employees at university have turion covered, sometimes even janitors and landscapers.

Here's a list of companies that do it:

1. "The Great Courses" is a scam aimed at pseudo intellectuals
2. None of the courses come close to $900

>>2129004
An MA in History costs £5K from there.

How is it a scam? their history lectures are quite good, the courses are constantly on sale anyway.
