The Role of Teachers in Online Education at Ogburn Online School

For centuries, teachers have played a pivotal role in shaping a child’s life. However, most of us are only familiar with the role they play in a traditional schooling environment. With time, that has started to change. Today, more and more people are becoming aware of the importance of the role of qualified teachers in online education environments. They serve as an important stepping stone to help children and students of all ages migrate from traditional schooling environments to online learning platforms.

Our Accreditations

Verifying accreditations is absolutely critical because the entire process helps you ascertain whether an online school meets the necessary standards of education. While online learning platforms have been around for a number of years now, they are still relatively new when compared with traditional schooling environments.

As a parent, there are several aspects you need to consider when evaluating the suitability of online homeschooling for your child, and accreditation plays an important role in that decision-making process. Accreditation by a regional, state or national board provides you with a sense of legitimacy as well as assures you that quality benchmarks are being met for your child. This also ensures that the diplomas and degrees awarded by such schools will be recognized and accepted when your child applies for higher education or employment opportunities.
