I'm not sure where to go with this part... maybe simplify somewhere else? Given a wild immagination, I would say this would be equivilient to a real life certification from an accredited college... but that seems way to far from the fun part of the Academy. | I'm not sure where to go with this part... maybe simplify somewhere else?

[edit] Summary
The idea behind this concept is to have programs that give a member a certification beyond just a single course. These would be academy wide, and may require courses to be taken from multiple colleges. Proboly would create a position to keep track of who is where on what degree, once someone enters a program, they could show previous completion of some of the required courses, while they would be tracked while they complete courses.
[edit] Degree Types
[edit] Certifications
These will be simple to complete, sometimes just a single course. You shouldn't need to get much general education in order to get these, these should simply be available by completing either a single course or a set of courses.
Aviation wings would definitally fit in here.
[edit] Bachelor's Degrees
This will be a more general degree, it should require a general basic understanding in a variety of topics with an emphisys in a specific area.
[edit] Masters's Degrees
This will be more specialized in an area, should be advanced comprehensioin in that area.
[edit] Doctoral Degrees
I'm not sure where to go with this part... maybe simplify somewhere else? Given a wild immagination, I would say this would be equivilient to a real life certification from an accredited college... but that seems way to far from the fun part of the Academy.

[edit] Rank Requirements
.. From ten-of-nine's (Steve Lackey's) own words ..
At some point we might set up promotional pre-reqs for some of the rank advancements. For example [throwing an idea together] for Force Captain eligability we might require multiple command college courses; entry level courses in medical, engineering, compsci, aviation, spec ops, intell, etc; a minimum of three months service at zone level or higher; six articles submitted to BadLands; and maybe 20 hours of community service. Once complete, he/she would be qualified for promotion once nominated and approved. <NOTE this is JUST a brainstorm idea, not a polished proposal...>
