Associate's Degree Students

It's obviously a quite good and very serious program, however, I just thought I'd mention here something I'd been reading of and had mentioned elsewhere on the site here. You might all care to look at Univ of the people or UoPeople, on http://www.uopeople.edu, which has, I gather, nearly free Assoc and Bach progs in bus admin and comp sci, as well as an MBA that just started. They're accredited by DETC formerly NHSC, though I don't know if military or industry has accepted them thus far, the only costs are admin and exam fees, no tuition costs, I also gather they might well have other majors though I don't know which or when and I gather doctoral level wouldn't be for quite some time if at all, however I just thought it might interest some here that's all honest.

When is it beneficial to have an associate's degree in a particular field ?
