Online Courses
What is an online course or program?
Online courses are courses offered using technology. They enable students to take courses—and sometimes complete programs---online, as alternatives to coming on campus. Online courses are especially helpful for working adults who travel, who are juggling multiple priorities of home and work, and desire the convenience of taking courses from their homes or worksites. Many courses in our Degree Completion programs are offered fully online. All courses in our degree completion programs, including those offered “face to face” (f2f) include some online learning enhancements.
