Online education

The degrees would be fine if they're accredited schools. For someone going into technology, this would impress me more because you're using technology to obtain your education. I went to a search engine (altavista) and did a search on "online degree programs" and it come up with over 700,000 hits for colleges and universities online. I think you will see an increase in people using this method for education, especially older individuals with families that need the extra flexibility it offersfor continuing education. Best wishes!

If all you are looking for is the degree, an online college or university would be fine.
However, many companies are looking for more than just the degree. By attending a conventional college, you are able to develop interpersonal skills that wont be learned or reinforced in the online college experience. The drawback is that no matter how good your technical skill, if you don't have the interpersonal skills to get past the HR recruiter and talk to the hireing manager, you will never get the chance to highlight your tech skills.
On the other hand, if this is a 2nd degree, or you have been in real(non-school) world and have had previous work experience, you can use those experiences to get pat the HR person to the hiring manager.
I hope this helps, if you have other questions, feel free to email me.
