Course Formats Offered

Adult Learner Program
The Adult Learner Program is designed to help the adult student with the transition back to the college classroom. The program includes a block of classes that can be applied to a degree or certificate while providing support for transition issues such as time management, study skills and goal setting. We currently offer returning-adult-only sections of both COM-101 and 102. Typically, two sections of COM-101 are offered during the Fall (one daytime section, one nighttime) and two sections of COM-102 are offered during the Spring (again, one daytime and one nighttime section). For more information, call (708) 974-5722 or visit the Adult Learner Program.

Online Learning
Online Classes
Course sections are taught using the Internet. The student accesses class materials, participates in discussions, and interacts with the instructor via a home computer or a computer located in one of the campus labs. The student is required to have an e-mail address and basic computer skills, as well as a high degree of independence.

Classroom/Online Classes
Students come to campus a number of times but do the majority of their work over the Internet. The student must have an e-mail address, basic computer skills, and a high degree of independence.

Extension Centers
Courses offered at the college's extension center make classes accessible at convenient neighborhood locations.
