Abstract: HRD university curricula from seven online Master's degree programs are compared with their on-campus counterparts. With the exception of one university that does not provide a similar Master's degree program on-campus, curricula are identical in three universities, while curricula in three other universities differ in only one or two courses. A review and discussion of barriers and solutions for online HRD programs provides information for institutions that intend to offer HRD degrees online. (Contains 2 tables.)
