Flexibility - Online courses offer students the chance to participate in classes on their own schedule. You may connect from your home or office, reducing the amount of time you spend traveling.

Choice - Offering online courses allows us to give you more choices. For instance, a course may not be able to attract enough students at any one location to offer it, but can when students from all those locations are added together.

Access - Online courses allow us to serve students who live too far away to attend face to face courses. It also offers all our students the opportunity to be taught by excellent instructors whose location or schedules preclude attendence at local weekly class meetings.

Realize the benefits of the web - The unique nature of the web, including hypertext and multimedia, offer new ways of presenting course material and allowing students to interact with it that can improve student understanding.
