Dr. Jimmie Flores

Part-time Faculty - Glenn R. Jones College of Business

In 2000, Dr. Jimmie Flores decided to pursue an online degree. He was employed at USAA, but desired to continue his education. Given his work and family responsibilities, he was unable to attend a brick-and-mortar institution.

Online learning provides working professionals with an excellent opportunity to pursue a college degree. Dr. Flores enjoyed the flexibility of a virtual education. He was able to find the right university with the right degree program. Dr. Flores learned that online universities offered accredited and rigorous programs. After earning his Ph.D. via distance learning, many career employment opportunities have arisen for him.

In 2006, Dr. Flores wrote a book for online learners, How to Become a Proficient Online Learner. Today, he is an advocate for distance learning, continually sharing the positive impact this learning modality had on his career.
