Are there any Education Majors or Minors available?
#1
I am checking what options I have for my degree, which will be used to be able to teach abroad. I was thinking of getting an Education major or minor for better job positions, however, from what I've found so far, I don't know if a distance Education major or minor is even possible (apparently, there is WGU, but the courses are difficultly transferable).

Is this the case? Is there even a distance Education major or minor available?

There are many, it depends on several factors that many people look at.
I generally do a search and then narrow down my findings.

Hi,

I'd like to recommend the PGCEi from the University of Nottingham. It costs about 3500GBP all-in, including all fees. You will have to participate in a one-week cohort in person, there are cohorts all around the world, you'd likely fly to one and stay in a hotel. I've found it to be the best value program. This won't certify you officially in your home country but the majority of international schools will consider such a credential good enough. There have been people in Hong Kong that have been refused a visa, but a huge portion of the world honors it. Take a look below:
