Distance Course Delivery

Distance learning has come a long way from simple correspondence courses. This alternative learning method is called many names but whether you've tried it or even heard of it, distance learning is growing by leaps and bounds and it's here to stay.

By early 2008, one out of 10 college students will be enrolled in an online degree program estimates Boston-based market research firm Eduventures.

The New York Times (10/31, B9, Berger) reported, "Nearly 3.5 million college or graduate students, one of every five, took at least one online course in the fall, double the figures of five years earlier, according to a survey of 2,500 campuses published October 2007 in a collaboration among the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, the College Board and a Babson College research group."

Distance learning offers many benefits and options for people who might not be able to come to campus to get needed education due to their busy schedules and work demands. If you're interested in additional courses in engineering, our distance learning program provides convenient online and CD-ROM delivery methods to help make going back to school a little easier. To find out if our distance engineering courses are right for you, peruse the resources at Quintessential Careers.
