What is Virtual College?

Virtual College is a new and unique way to learn. Using your own computer, Internet connection, and our latest delivery software, you can connect and participate in a live classroom from the comfort of your own home! Virtual College turns your computer into a powerful, two-way communication device allowing you to speak, listen, and view PowerPoint slides and other learning materials. The user friendly desktop is easy to master and students are communicating comfortably by the end of the first class. Classes may be recorded for later viewing or study purposes! Don't let unpredictable schedules, employment or other lifestyle commitments be a barrier to learning.

Discover Virtual College: the closest thing to a live classroom... in a virtual world!
