“We are very excited to enter into an agreement as a Federal Academic Alliance member institution and we look forward to serving federal employees. Our online programs deliver the same renowned education and degree as students would receive in-person, developed and taught by UofL faculty,” said Gale Rhodes, vice provost and executive director of the Delphi Center for Teaching and Learning. “Our online students walk away with the same pride in their degree, ready to take the next step in their life and pursue career progressions.”
Online education is increasingly appealing to working professionals like federal employees, as it allows them to balance work, life and education without having to deprioritize the things that matter most. The Federal government’s Federal Academic Alliance was created to help address critical skill gaps and mission-critical occupations in areas including human resources, economics, cybersecurity, engineering, analytics, and more.
UofL now offers more than 50 fully online programs, including bachelor’s, master’s and certificates across a variety of industries and interest field, with nearly 70 total programs expected by Spring 2022. UofL’s online programs achieved several recognitions in U.S. News and World Report 2021 ratings, including Best Online Programs – Bachelor’s, Best Online Programs – Grad Education, and Best Online Programs – Criminal Justice.

So far, I have taken 6 EM courses which all have helped me tremendously at work especially when investigating product quality issues. The EM program at UofL goes beyond explaining the body of knowledge. The EM courses teach you about various tools & techniques and how to apply them in real world applications. At the end of each course, I feel that I am equipped with new powerful tools to help me perform better at work and grow in my career. I have used these tools to investigate supplier quality issues with surgical instruments that could result in a product recall. This requires me to gather information and analyze the data immediately.
