I'm looking for good online eLearning/instructional design courses. Can someone guide me. I'm a self taught e-learning developer and been in the game for the past 7 years. I thought a certificate/degree would be a nice addition to my resume. I've completed my M.Sc in Software Engineering. Thanks in advance.
There are a number of solid programs, depending on what exactly you're looking for.
I've heard good things from multiple graduates of the UW-Stout certificate program. They say it's very practical. Bloomsburg University in PA has good programs too, especially if you're interested in game design.
Good question...University of Washington. Personally, since you already have a degree, I'd focus on building out a really solid portfolio to strengthen and demonstrate your skills. Not sure a degree necessarily helps (although if you have the time and money, then it doesn't hurt).

Connie Malamed has a great list of certificates and graduate programs here, many of which can be completed online. http://theelearningcoach.com/resources/instructional-design-programs/

The edX Micromasters looks promising, although I don't know anyone who has completed it. https://www.edx.org/micromasters/instructional-design-technology
Thank you so much for the suggestions @Christy Tucker. Will dig into those links. I hopefully find something I'm looking for :)
Here's a list someone in the community started a while back.
I've heard good things about the certificate program at University of WA. I've had a few friends go through the one at San Diego State, too.

Thank you so much Mr. Kuhlmann. Just one clarification - Is it University of Washington or is it The University of Western Australia?
Thanks!

Thank you, Sir. I probably will be taking up a certificate course instead of a degree.
