About Distance Education
College of Marin is using the latest technology to help you realize your educational goals. Now you can use a television or computer to take the courses you need to finish your certificate or degree.
Our Distance Education program reaches beyond the traditional classroom in order to fill the educational and career needs of those not being best served by more conventional approaches. Distance Education courses provide an excellent alternative for students who are unable to attend classes during regular hours, or who would like to take additional units in a time-efficient manner.
All courses maintain the high academic standards of the college and most are transferable (see counselor for details). College-level courses are available in a variety of convenient formats.
Three-Year Development Plan
There is a three-year plan to develop Distance Education (DE) at the College of Marin. The plan has two intended outcomes: to increase our online course offerings and to improve our rate of student success in DE courses.
