Online

Online classes offer students the flexibility to learn outside the traditional classroom. A qualified teacher is available to answer questions, respond to assignments, grade exams, and designs each course. All courses meet the goals and objectives of the same courses offered in the traditional classroom and transfer to other institutions in the same way.

Online courses provide an enriching and engaging environment for learning. Kirkwood online students can take advantage of the same learning supports the college makes available to all students. You can find more information about these in your course syllabus. 

Kirkwood Community College has been approved by Iowa to participate in State Authorization Reciprocity Agreements (SARA). SARA is a voluntary, regional approach to state oversight of postsecondary distance education. Students enrolled in online courses who wish to file a complaint may do so at https://creditcatalog.kirkwood.edu/academic-student-procedures/general-procedures-student-rights/student-complaint-procedure/.
