Looking for an online degree in animation

Hi there, I'm looking into animation schools online for a friend.

They want to study 2D animation and get an accredited qualification, to be completely honest I don't understand what exactly they want but I'm gonna be grateful for any help.

If you've worked in any big studio please share your experience and what exactly mattered to them when hiring and any details you can share. Everything is going to help us.

They want to work in a professional studio and they're already studying animation in an actual college but it's bad and the professors aren't the best, unexpected assignments, and it's just very unorganised. As far as I know that was the only option available for them to physically go to and no one has graduated from their animation degree yet so that's not the best.

Thanks for helping
