Traditional classroom offers you an interactive setting with other students and the instructor who employs unique teaching techniques such as lecture, power point presentations, DVD presentations, white board, group activities and even games.
 
Online courses allow you to study at your own pace. You will still be able to ask an instructor questions if you need additional help. On Line Courses are best suited for those students who are computer/internet-comfortable and own or use newer computers. The course is totally internet-based with all text online with no textbook. You may work at your own pace and access your course at any computer. You have a year to complete the course unless course states otherwise.

Video Conference Courses
Video Conference courses are a form of distance learning. In this form, the television is used to display the video and audio of an instructor teaching a live class at a remote location. The instructor can simultaneously view and speak interactively with the classroom and students at the remote location. This allows courses to be taught at locations that are not practical to send an instructor too. We are currently offering Video Conference courses in Melbourne, Ocala, and Daytona Beach, FL.
