Can anyone recommend any? UK, USA, Canada, OZ and NZ being the preferences. Not entirely sure what I want to study just yet.

Cheers

In Canada, the University of Waterloo has an extensive distance learning program. It all depends on what you want to study. I would probably never take more than 2 courses at a time, though, unless I'm doing nothing but studying. Fulltime job plus 2 classes is a big time commitment.

Athabaska University in Canada is primarily a distance university. I'm not sure how a full degree would look from there, but a friend did a few courses with them while abroad, and had them transferred back to her usual uni without a problem. From what she said, it definitely isn't a degree mill.

I have studied at University of Victoria and University of Calgary for various certificates and am enrolled in a Masters at Athabasca University. All of these are reputable. I am also studying at the University of Phoenix, this is reputable as well, the only down side is that EVERY class has team work which can be good or PAINFUL!
