Professional Update Courses offer a wide selection of subjects not POST certified. In addition, courses leading to an Associate degree are offered. On-line training is carries to another plateau. Course content resides on the World Wide Web where students can access it at any time from any place. While content is the same as an on-campus class, there are no regular class meetings.
All work is done on-line.
Assignments that involve writing are turned in as email attachments. On-line quizzes require the answers to be emailed to the instructor. Dr. Andy Howard, Virtual College Coordinator, says it's a misconception that on-line classes are easier than traditional classes. In an on-line class, you can't be passive. The student has to be constantly involved in the learning process.
