When researching any college or university, whether it is online or traditional, it's important that the institution is transparent and accountable - that it can demonstrate that you will learn what you go their to learn. I know Capella University is leading the way on that, as you can see from their Web site, Learning and Career Outcomes: http://www.capellaresults.com/index.asp
