I am Lead Faculty for online B.A. and M.A. programs in Strategic Communications at National University. It's the coolest job I've ever had -- imagine spending time researching social networks, blogs, wikis, IM, etc.

The programs have a distinct digital media/Web 2.0 twist. We teach traditional professional communication techniques -- persuasion, focus group and survey research, campaign planning and management, but we spend most of our time teaching bleeding edge communications. Both the B.A. and M.A. programs are entirely online. The M.A. can be completed in one year; the B.A. in two years. (National University is accredited by the premier accreditation agency, Western Association of Schools and Colleges, WASC, which accredits top institutions like the University of California.)

I'm here to learn and to share as we all try to grasp and use the wealth of ways to connect with the world's people. Check out my work at www.visualcv.com/joanvt and reach me at jvantassel@nu.edu.
