Posts:248Interesting thread. Since you asked about courses I would say that NJIT was probably first given the work of Murray Turoff and Starr Roxanne Hiltz in the 80s. University of Wisconsin also offered online courses early on but I don't have much information on that. My old school started offering a degree program completely online in 1987 - authorized by the state of California in 1988 and accredited by DETC's predecessor NHSC in 1993 - we were the first online school to achieve any type of accreditation.

It's always interesting to see how the adjectives are used. Jones and UoP actually had to revise their message to include things like first regionally accredited and first 100% online school to gain regional accreditation when challenged by the DETC given ISIM's 1993 accreditation.
