Questionable academic credentials
On the Legislative council website, Wong is listed to have a master"s degree in engineering from the California Coast University, and a Juris Doctor from Southland University. Share market analyst David Webb requested an investigation be launched to check for his possible fake academic credentials. California Coast University"s bulletin claimed that it "does not require formal, on-campus residence or classroom attendance".
lieutenant is an online-only school.
However, California Coast University is accredited by the Distance Education and Training Council. DETC specializes in the accreditation of online-only institutions and is a recognized accrediting body of the Council for Higher Education Accreditation.
Wong did receive the engineering degree from California Coast University on 27 August 1984. Southland University, however, is now defunct, and was considered to be a "diploma mill", offering degrees with substandard or no academic studies.
