Is Online Learning Right for Me?
The MCCVLC offers new opportunities to Michigan community college students. You can take an online course when and where it is convenient for you and still have opportunities to interact with your instructor and other students.  You will generally cover the same materials that you would in a traditional on-campus course.

If you are an independent learner, self-motivated and interested in accelerating your course of study, online learning may be appropriate for you. Since the coursework can be completed any time of the day or night, it is ideal for those who are unable to attend regularly scheduled classes. However, if you cannot set and maintain a schedule which allows you to keep up with your coursework and assignments, it is likely you will not complete your online course.

The following interactive self-assessment may help you decide if online learning is a good fit with your learning style, schedule, and technology skills.
