As Bronx social studies teacher Seth Gilman sipped his coffee and prepared to log on for a day of virtual teaching, he was met with an error message. At first, he worried it would be a repeat of a disastrous pivot to remote learning during a 2024 snowstorm. "Oh no, not again," he thought to himself.

Since 2020, online degrees have rocketed into the public lexicon. Far from being a flash-in-the-pan moment born out of pandemic-induced necessity, remote learning is now a viable and often preferred alternative to brick-and-mortar learning. When it comes to leadership credentialing in particular, it is a helpful way for established professionals to learn new skills and develop their resume while holding down other responsibilities.
