The key word - Distance education. That could be a problem. Read OP6 manual, page 30:
A distance learning credential is eligible for points as long as it meets the definition of a credential
as outlined in R73. If the credential is not described in terms of number of years duration (i.e.,
three-year bachelor‘s degree), officers should apply the definition of full-time equivalent study and
knowledge that the visa office has acquired on local education institutions and credentials.
There is a high incidence of fraud in this area. Verification checks should be conducted with
issuing institutions to ensure that program integrity standards are respected.

There's huge debate around this. I've came across many cases in this forums and other direct questions. I've came across one of the appeals made by the Minister of immigration to over rule a decision made by judicial review judge in favor of an applicant with spouse of distant learning. This is also after reviewing all laws and procedures; IRPA, IRPR, EG7, OP ..etc, I would summarize my conclusions as follows:

1- at first, the degree should be credited by authorities in its country of issuance
2- secondly, the degree duration will be assessed based on FTE (Full Time Equivalent).
3- then, the degree shouldn't be based on self study + exams only, classes/lectures should be there irrespective of method of delivering the content, like elearning.

The conclusion: distant learning is accepted as long as it meets the above conditions.

It is not problem at all.

You can go ahead and apply safely.

And if you have a master degree and total 17 years of education (high school + bachelor + master), then you get 25 points.
