May I have some recommendations for good quality life experience masters degrees that come with transcripts?

I realize the down-side to a life experience degree, but I find myself in need of an advanced degree for a job I am already doing in a foreign country (and have been doing for several years)...and I am completely unwilling to spend the money or effort on a traditional type of program. I need something within a few months. The diploma itself needs to look good. I need transcripts and the ability to have diploma and transcripts verified at least by mail (a fee would be expected). I would like to find a company/school that didn't blatantly advertise life experience degrees and had, as close as possible, the appearance of a traditional distance learning university or a brick and mortar school. In other words, I want it to be as close to a traditional degree as possible. I am more concerned with quality than expense. Thank you very much to anyone who offers an opinion...especially if you have personal experience with the company/school you recommend.

1. I'm really sorry, there is no such thing. I may be an elitist. I have a masters and a JD from top tier colleges. I totally appreciate life experience when hring, but I do not respect any instiution that gives a degree, in its entirety no less, for that. Academics are academics, very different learning from on-the-job-life learning, creating a unique way of thinking. And how would they do it to create a transcript? What are they going to do, break up your acquired skills and fit them under their class titles? And you think that's not going to cost you? I suggest you get a job when you come here, apply for a masters degree part-time at a respectable traditional institution, (or apply first and then get a job) and earn your degree while you work. You will probably be able to get a couple of classes knocked off the requirements for graduation because of life experience.
