Employment Question - Alpha - 01-21-2021
The number of alternative sources to transferable courses/credits has increased quite a bit over recent years. CLEP has been around for a long time but other sources are quite new. Is this industry becoming a destination for people with MEd. degrees in Instruction/Curriculum? Or EdD degrees? Typically these programs sent their graduates in school systems. Now there's a new category of employer for these grads to shop? Are any of you doing this?

I seriously doubt it.

I'm sure there are SOME jobs for educators either creating content or doing actual instruction, but I don't think it's many or particularly well paying. In most cases, students never interact with anyone.
