Did you know that you can earn
college credit at home? Courses via distance learning give you
the freedom to take courses around your busy schedule and thus
help you to reach your educational goals!
What is distance learning?
In its simplest form, distance learning involves the use of
technology to connect a student with an instructor. The origins
of distance learning can be traced to the use of correspondence
classes in the early 1800's. Since then, distance learning has
evolved by embracing other technological developments - the
telegraph, radio, television, satellite, and today, the Internet
- to deliver education to learners whenever and wherever they
are.
Through distance learning, you
can take REAL college courses that carry the same college credit
as on-campus courses. You can register for a just as you would
for an on-campus course. And best of all, the courses are fully
accredited and they look the same on your transcript as
on-campus classes. The only difference is in the way you learn.
Instead of attending lectures or seminars at the campus, you
complete lessons at home at times that are convenient for you.
