Accreditation and Online Associate Degrees in Human Services

Before applying to an online human services program, make sure it’s accredited. Accreditation indicates that a school or program has met certain quality standards set by a board of experts. Look for these two main types of accreditation: institutional and programmatic.

Institutional accreditation can be awarded at the regional or national level. National accreditation is generally reserved for trade or vocational schools. Regional accreditation is generally considered more valuable, but both represent seals of approval for schools, so you can be confident with either. Students must attend an institutionally accredited school in order to qualify for federal financial aid.

Programmatic accreditation assesses individual schools or programs within an institution. For human services degrees, programmatic accreditation may be provided by the Council for Standards in Human Services Education (CSHSE). This organization works to create consistent, high standards for human services education programs. Their qualifications for accreditation are evidence-based and peer-reviewed by experts in the field to help ensure programs around the country are relevant and high-quality. CSHSE accredits human services programs at the associate, bachelor’s, and master’s levels.

Inside Online Associate Degree Programs in Human Services

Online associate degrees in human services can take many forms, so be sure to choose a program that pertains to your career goals, suits your schedule, and works within your budget. Individual programs vary, but the following information can give prospective students some guidelines to keep in mind when comparing human services associate degrees online.

What Classes Do You Take in an Online Human Services Associate Degree?

Human services students may see a range of course options when comparing online associate programs, but there are a handful of common courses and subjects that provide the foundation for human services study.

Intro to Human Services

This course typically provides the foundation for the rest of a human services degree program and may be particularly important to associate degree students with no background in human services. Coursework generally includes an introduction to the human services field and the multifaceted work it can entail. Students may also examine human services theory and common social and ethical issues.

Course titles to look for: Introduction to Human Services

Psychology

Human services programs may offer multiple psychology courses. Introductory psychology classes generally provide a survey of the field and psychological methods and can include study in biology, emotions, perception, therapy, and social factors. Programs often offer additional psychology courses that are particularly useful in human services, like developmental and social psychology.

Course titles to look for: Introduction to Psychology; Developmental Psychology; Abnormal Psychology; Social Psychology

Sociology

Since human services careers tend to involve helping people in a wide range of social systems, basic sociology is often found as part of the course load. Many associate human services programs provide an overview of sociological concepts, such as culture, social stratification, multiculturalism, and deviance.

Course titles to look for: Introductory Sociology; Principles of Sociology

Counseling

Like psychology, counseling may be addressed multiple times throughout a human services associate degree program. Introductory courses tend to provide students with foundational counseling tools and theories. Relationship skills, ethics, boundaries, and counseling techniques may also be taught. Students can deepen their counseling skills through courses in group counseling as well as marriage and family counseling.

Course titles to look for: Introduction to Counseling; Group Counseling Methods; Group Counseling; Counseling Theory and Tactics

Communication

Effective communication with many populations is at the core of human services. Communication classes can help students hone their skills in a variety of contexts, including social, relational, and cultural. Students can develop their listening, speaking, nonverbal, and writing skills through research, presentations, and group activities.

Course titles to look for: Written Communication; Interpersonal Communication


Throughout an online associate in human services program, students have opportunities to develop key skills that can help them in their careers. Common skills addressed in these programs can include the following:

  • Professionalism, professional responsibility, and best practices in human services.
  • Effective communication with diverse populations.
  • Identification and assessment of the social, cultural, and relational factors within social systems that impact individuals.
  • Discovery and effective use of community resources to aid clients.
  • Accurate documentation of case records.

How Long Does It Take to Get an Associate in Human Services Online?

Online associate degrees in human services typically require around 60 credit hours, but how long it takes to complete those hours generally depends on how many courses a student takes per term. Full-time students can usually finish their programs in four terms, or two years. Part-time study takes around eight or nine terms to complete, depending on the student and the program set-up. Students who enter a human services associates degree program with transfer credits from another institution can often complete their degree in a shorter period of time. Some schools offer programs that combine human services associate degrees with other related diplomas, certificates, and credentials. These programs may take longer to complete, but they come with the benefit of additional education and credentials.

How Much Will an Online Associate in Human Services Cost?

The cost of earning a human services associate degree online can vary depending on a number of factors. The school, the number of credits taken per term, financial aid options, transferability of previously earned credits, and in-state versus out-of-state tuition can all affect how much students pay for their degrees.

Paying for Your Human Services Associate Degree Online

It’s important to have sufficient funding to complete your online associate degree in human services before enrolling in a program. Figuring out how to pay for school can be challenging, but there are many financial aid resources available to students. Here are some options to explore:

1

Financial aid

Students attending a regionally accredited school can fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), which can provide an array of federal financial aid, like scholarships, grants, federal loans, and work-study opportunities. Schools also use FAFSA information to help determine student financial aid packages. Check out our financial aid page for detailed information on different types of aid.

2

Scholarships

Students should be sure to apply for as many scholarships as they can since this type of aid does not need to be repaid. Scholarships can be both merit- and need-based, and some can even be renewed for multiple terms. Scholarships are typically offered by schools, professional associations, and private organizations. The National Organization for Human Services, for instance, offers the David C. Maloney Scholarship to student members and is available to those pursuing associate degrees. To learn more about scholarships for human services students, visit our scholarships page.

3

Grants

Grants are similar to scholarships, so students should be sure to seek them out when possible. Unlike scholarships, grants are generally need-based rather than merit-based, and they are usually provided by federal and state governments. Filling out the FAFSA is a great way to apply for federal grants, but students should check with their state and local governments to see what other grant options may be available to them.

4

Private Loans

While federal loans may be available to many students, some may not qualify, or the loans may not be sufficient. When federal loans and other forms of aid don’t cover the cost of tuition, students can get loans from banks and private companies. Students should be mindful of interest rates and repayment timelines when taking out private loans. Schools sometimes partner with organizations to help students find private loan providers, which can ease some stress.

What’s After Your Online Associate Degree in Human Services?

Before beginning a degree program, students should familiarize themselves with potential career and education paths, what they entail, and the income and job growth they can bring. Researching this information ahead of time can help students make sure an online associates degree in human services is a good choice for them.

Most entry-level human services careers do not require certification, but students may want to pursue optional credentials to increase employment opportunities. Check out some of these optional certifications human services students can pursue upon earning their online associate degree.

At least 800 hours of formal education in human services is required, so associate degree students may have to continue their educations before pursuing this credential.

This credential is great for prospective health education specialists. Certification is granted to those who pass an exam that measures their familiarity and competency in seven areas of responsibility for health education specialists. Bachelor’s-level coursework is typically required, but associate-level work may be sufficient if the coursework has been accepted by an accredited four-year institution.
