    Hi

    I'm glad I came across this wonderful forum as I’m certain I will get an answer to my nightmare.

    I was wondering if you could advice of a good university which offers Bachelor in adult education.

    I am currently working in a training department looking at the administrative side (invoicing, learner administration, answer to inquiries). I want reach the next step and therefore would to complete a degree in this field in order to become a facilitator working on creation and delivery of corporate training.

    I contacted the Walden University which offers a Bachelor in Instructional Design and Technology but their tuition is really high. I also check Bellevue university and it' even higher.

    Could you maybe advice me on some other university who offer this degree online for non US resident. (i currently reside in the Netherlands)

    Your answer will be appreciated.

    Coming from the Netherlands, I think you are going to find most US universities expensive in comparison. I have friends that attended the University of Amsterdam, VU University Amsterdam and Leiden and all seem to think that American schools are prohibitively expensive compared to tuition rates in the Netherlands. Are there no schools there that offer the degree you are looking for?
    The Netherlands are great, by the way. I visit two or three times per year. Would love to live there for a few years at some point.

    St. Joseph's of Maine has a program you might be interested in: Adult Education Degree - University Online Courses - Bachelor's Degree Online

    Here is an excerpt from the website:

    "This degree completion general studies program in Adult Education & Training is designed for the student who has previous college credits, and would like to earn a degree that could take less time and cost less money than many other Bachelor's degree programs with greater core course requirements."

    Thanks for your replies. Really appreciate them.

    Unfortunately I could not find a university in Europe who would offer this type of degree. It looks like business administration is a big favorite on the side of the Atlantic.

    You are correct US tuition is very high compare to Europe and I really ask myself how you guys can pay for this. My partner and I both work full time and we simply can't afford my study at Walden.

    Thanks for your suggestion of university. I will look into it.

    If someone else knows any other university which offers this type of degree let me know.

    thanks
