Distance Learning

Distance Education (DE), also known as Distance Learning (DL), is simply learning from a distance, usually from home, or from a conveniently located off-site campus. DL allows students to take courses, earn college credits, even degrees, without ever leaving home. DL makes use of the Internet, computer software, modems, TV stations, 2-way interactive television using fiber optics, microwave, digital phone lines, satellites, video cassette and audio tape, and normal mail to deliver instruction. From the many providers of DE, The Black Higher Education Channel has begun a process to present the best available on the Internet. We have focused on accredited programs that have been touted by education professionals. In addition to top university programs such as Roger Williams University, North Carolina A&T University, and the University of Phoenix, our initial selections are:
