What is Distance Learning?
Distance Learning is any instructional opportunity that reaches beyond the college campus through the use of technology including KET Telecourses, Internet, and ITV live two-way interactive instruction.
Technology-based courses require access to the appropriate technology.Telecourse, Internet/ Web delivery, and ITV, Interactive Television based courses are for students who can function in an independent study environment.
Though all courses are supervised by SCC faculty, the online student is seldom required to attend formal class meetings. The electronically delivered distance learning courses are ideal opportunities for the self-motivated, independent learner, and the learner who is working and does not have a consistent schedule. Courses not offered by the College can be found by checking with KYVC.
