SCC distance learning courses will provide you with the same quality education you would receive in the classroom but with much greater flexibility and convenience.

If a face-to-face orientation and midterm examination are offered, you are expected to attend a session on campus. All distance courses require the completion of a final examination, but it is up to the instructor to decide if the final is to be taken in person or online. Instruction may be presented through the World Wide Web or through television/videotaped programs, or a combination of methods.

Distance courses have varying starting and ending dates. To learn more about available courses, see the Fall 08 and Spring 09 Course Schedules. There you will find orientation letters that include information meeting dates, faculty expectations, required texts, and more.
