*What is Distance Education? 
Distance Education classes are delivered to students across Northern Ontario. Students participate in live scheduled classes via CENTRA (web enhanced audio conferencing)  from any Contact North site, or even from their home computer using high speed internet. In addition, some classes are delivered by  Video Conferencing technology accessible from any Confederation College Regional Campus or select Contact North sites.  CENTRA and Video Conferencing resemble classroom-type delivery allowing two way communication in real time. Students are able to listen, speak, see visual materials such as PowerPoint presentations, photos, or written communication via an electronic whiteboard. Distance Education students follow a scheduled timetable.
