What is the value of an IGNOU degree?

The worth of an IGNOU degree can be determined in several ways:

• Under its legitimacy as a degree. (Accredited by UGC and AICTE)
• Under its eligibility for government jobs (Almost all govt jobs)
• The caliber of its course curriculum (Yes, It has one of the updated courses with the latest trends)
• Because of its reputation in the private sector. A large number of bright students who are unable to attend regular courses for various reasons attend them.
• Because of its teaching methodology. (They provide distance education, but they engage you for a full year with assignments, projects, exams, and weekend classes.)

However, if you compare the quality of knowledge inducted in distance course vs regular course, you will find that regular course provides better exposure. Any job is dependent on the candidate's skills, and if you are talented enough to learn the necessary skills, finding work will be easy. One must not blame a degree if you are a mediocre learner.
