You should check out some blogs and forums dedicated to distance learners. I’ve included in the references section below the link to a blog/forum site that is written specifically for and by distance learners. It’s a great place to go if you’re looking for information like that.
I have also included a link to a place where you can begin your search for a masters in IT management.
Make sure to avoid any unaccredited schools. Accreditation is extremely important when getting any kind of degree online.
Lastly, there are a lot of people who frown upon online institutions. If you do get your degree online you should know how to defend it. It takes a tremendous amount of discipline and a thorough understanding of time management to be successful in completing a degree online and there is no reason for your degree to be looked down upon just because you completed it online.
Good luck!
You should research accreditation of the institutions as well as the costs. Most online schools lack accreditation and are very highly priced. You can attend a state university that offers online courses.
