Will an associate degree from an online nationally accredited college allow me to work in the NC schools?
Question:
Answer:
You will need a bachelor's degree with a major in elementary education or in a subject commonly taught in secondary schools plus professional education credits.
The college where you earn your degree must be certified by a regional accrediting association and preferably also by NCATE (National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education). This site has a list of the schools in Georgia that are accredited by NCATE.

A reputable Georgia college would be accredited by SACS (Southern Association of Colleges and Schools) which has its headquarters in Decatur, Georgia. You can find out whether the college you are planning to attend is accredited by SACS by calling (404) 679-4558.
There are a number of "accrediting" bodies that are not recognized by the academic community - they are a sham.
