I am assuming for anything related to certification for teaching/education there would need to be a field placement? So that seems like it would not really be feasible.
Teaching & Nursing are not going to work (I'm guessing) since the requirements in each country are probably different, and the hands-on portion would be hard to manage.
That leaves a business degree, and something IT-related. So if those are the only things WGU offers that you (as a Canadian) could use, then you're really narrowing down what you could get anyway.
Here's a list of programs similar to WGU (they're the ones I know of at least). No idea on costs for all, but there's a lot more variety than WGU offers.
Competency-Based programs:
APU's Momentum
Capella's Flexpath
Brandman's MyPath
U of Wisconsin Flex
Northern Arizona University
John F Kennedy University's FlexCourse
TESU BSBA/HR 2018 - WVNCC BOG AAS 2017 - GGU Cert in Mgmt 2000
