Dean's List To qualify for the Dean's List, a student must, in any one semester, complete 12 or more units with a grade point average of 3.5 or higher. Many courses and curricula offered at El Camino College are based on the supposition that the student has completed the specific high school courses generally included in the college preparatory program. The Distance Education program offers fully accredited college courses via television and computer, providing students with a convenient and flexible way to take classes. The courses are taught by distinguished ECC faculty, most of whom are full time instructors on campus. Many of these courses fulfill ECC's general education, elective and major requirements and many can be transferred to four-year institutions.
Most courses require some on campus meetings with the course instructor.
Students who wish to register for Distance Education courses should contact the Admissions Office for registration information. CCE uses the entire community as the laboratory, allowing students to apply theoretical information learned in the classroom to practical problems at work. It enables students to compare their personal goals and expectations with specific career requirements and to learn from professionals and technical, experts working in their career field. To be eligible for CCE credits, students must be enrolled in at least seven units including their CCE class, and be working or volunteering in a job directly related to their majors where there are opportunities to engage new learning experiences. Their employers must also be willing to work with CCE instructors in the preparation of learning objectives and evaluation of students.
