| Opis: | The emergence of online university degree programs is an opportunity for
Chile, struggling with low tertiary education attainment rates and a skills gap
in the labor market. However, little attention has been dedicated to whether
the employers in Chile perceive online and on-campus university education
as equivalent. This study investigated the perceptions of a convenient sample
of 38 employers from different industries, using Likert scale questions and
a hypothetical hiring scenario. The survey results were then consulted with
three experts who provided their interpretations. The findings indicated that
the investigated sample generally does not perceive online and on-campus
university education as equivalent but would not discard an online degree
graduate only due to their academic background. However, when given a
choice between a 100% online, 100% on-campus, and a hybrid degree holder,
none of them would choose a 100% online degree graduate. Instead, 57%
would hire a hybrid degree graduate and 43% a 100% on-campus graduate.
There is a significant, positive correlation between the perceived equivalence
in rigor, learning experience, and learning content and the willingness
to hire an online degree graduate. The university’s reputation is a crucial
factor influencing hiring decisions in Chile. The degree’s relevance may be
insignificant compared to other factors considered by the hiring managers. |
