I have completed 12 credits of 24 for my MS at Capella online and have enjoyed it immensely. The courses are productively challenging and relevant to the terminal objectives of each course and the degree program. I have not felt that I was wasting time taking an unnecessary course at any time. The student relationships, while difficult in the online environment, are very supportive and the staff has always been ready and able to assist me. I have never had a request for information or help, either to an instructor or an administrator, go unanswered more than 1 working day.

On the low side, the classes are really expensive compared to other online institutions and brick & mortar schools (appr $400 per quarter hour) and I don't feel that Capella enjoys any more prestige than other, cheaper institutions being that it is regionally accredited but not "ivy league."

I chose Capella because it had the degree program I wanted, it was online (important as I am active military, deployable, who cannot regularly attend B&M schools), and a family member is an alumni who highly recommended it.

For other degree programs, not Training and Performance Improvement, I would recommend looking elsewhere for a MS online.
