Summary/Abstract: Successful online education programs are paramount at higher education institutions. In a recent study to examine the state of online educational commitment in higher education there was a diverse variety of academic and administrative occupations. The wide range of occupations provided a view into institution-wide creative endeavors proposed to broaden the teaching and learning objectives of higher education. Principles, themes, implications and important aspects of online teaching and learning programs and their administrators from state and private four-year institutions with existing programs were explored. A major theme that emerged from the occupations was a student-centered approach to teaching and learning.
