The 411 on Criminal Justice Degrees
Are Online Degrees as Valued as Traditional Ones?
Because a criminal justice degree is content-based (as opposed to physical performance), yes. As long as you are taking courses within an accredited program, there is no question at all of validity. Keep in mind of course that if you are a recruit, you will still be required to go through an academy and prove physical aptitude. Online criminal justice programs are not a substitute for the academy.
In fact, hiring and promotion committees are more likely to commend you for your after-hours dedication to furthering your education.
