Online courses at Chesapeake College are convenient, flexible, effective....and different from learning in an on-campus classroom.

Are you likely to do well in an online class? Take the quiz "Is online learning for me?" to find out. You can also visit the Sample Course.

If you are ready to get started, you can, see the Enrollment Info page, find classes being offered a through the Course Schedules link, and check the Technical Requirements for your hardware and software.

You are not alone out there! You can get help with writing assignments, research papers, and technology over the Internet, on your phone, or in person. See the Help for Students page. For written answers to common questions, see the FAQ's page.
