"Increased funding is becoming a more important benefit of distance education, especially as the University faces budget cuts."

Revenue Sharing & Benefits
The college/academic department receives a portion of the tuition revenue generated by enrollment in each credit course. The academic department can choose to hire and pay course instructors directly or may elect to have Ecampus pay instructors who have been approved by the department. In addition, a portion of the funds generated by the student credit hours is distributed each academic year in relation to enrollment in Ecampus courses.
