HRE Online's Impact on Students

Community College Teaching and Learning Program
	Shelly Hokanson Professor of Information Technology, Prairie State College Master's Graduate	"First and foremost, I feel the best thing about the CCTL program is the quality of the curriculum and instruction we receive. I find the program to be as rigorous and rewarding as any face-to-face graduate level experiences I've had, if not more so. The convenience of working from home is also a vital feature for me, as I would not be able to fit work on a Masters degree into my schedule without this option. Finally, I am thrilled that without fail, each semester I am able to use what I'm learning in the CCTL courses immediately in my job. (I teach at a community college). The CCTL program has made me more productive in curriculum design, and more effective as an instructor."

	Sean Rogers Sr. Analyst, Labor Analysis & Planning, US Airways Current Master's Student	"Only seven months after enrolling into the HRD Ed.M., and with more than half of the required classes ahead of me, my participation in the HRE-online program enabled me to transition into an HR-related function at my current employer. My original goal was to pursue a job transfer after completing the degree, but I was able to leverage my limited coursework to obtain an early promotion. My interviewers were highly impressed with the program's structure and practical applicability, and with the fact that it was part of a strong university such as UIUC. I have no doubt that this new career opportunity is largely the result of my participation in HRE Online!"
