An investigation by the Florida Center for Investigative Reporting shows how high school diplomas received online can be a waste of money and not recognized as valid. According to the report although dozens of organizations accredit schools, "the U.S. higher education community at large only recognizes a handful of accrediting organizations as legitimate." With little regulation in the online education market, individuals can spend lots of money on degrees that are essentially worthless.
