If you are a smart employer, you would not want a capable employee to leave. However, many a times your employee would want to quit the job to pursue further education. In such a case, educating your employee about the benefits of an online degree can be of great help. Of course, your employee may consider this as company's retention gimmick. But, in case you are able to put forth the facts correctly, you would be able to retain them.
It is a known fact that online degrees are beneficial. All you need to do is present the same fact to your employee. To start off, you could present your employee with a list of reputed institutions that are offering the desired course. You could even consider discussing strengths of some of the institutions that you have shortlisted. Compare this to a conventional school and you could earn brownie points.
Also, educate your employee about the benefits of an online degree. Talk about the savings that your employee would make in terms of money as well as time. You could also discuss the skills that your employee will gain in the process of achieving an online degree.
