Full Speed Ahead: Surviving to Thriving as an Online Doctoral Student

By Doctors Publishing Group

What would happen if you had a single source, written by doctors who took the journey to obtain a doctoral degree online while still working? Full Speed Ahead is the book for you. Starting with the history of education and whether or not to consider traditional versus non-traditional learning, e.g. online doctoral education, you are taken on a wonderful excursion. You voyage through the good, the bad and the ugly of learning teams, while deciding if there is time for you, the learner, to maintain a career, raise a family, and find the key ingredients as you maneuver through the coursework and residencies. What make this so readable are the personal stories the six writers sprinkle throughout the book as you pick your doctoral committee, prepare your dissertation, get through the Review Boards, design your study, conduct your research, and finally defend your dissertation. This is the one place to go for a full authority on deciding if an online doctorate is for you. Full Speed Ahead should be required reading during the admission process for any student in pursuit of a doctorate.
