Online and Hybrid Courses and Fully Online Degrees/Certificates


Through iCampus, Joliet Junior College, is meeting the growing demand for online learning options, allowing students to flexibility to pursue an education while maintaining their busy schedules. Online classes at JJC are fully accredited and transferable. Course formats include online and hybrid courses.

Online Courses and Hybrid Courses (formerly titled Blended Courses)

JJC offers a broad range of online courses and degree programs that utilize the iCampus site to facilitate teaching and learning. Students enrolled in an online course do not attend class on-campus; however, some online courses may require campus visits for exams. New content and class activities in online courses are made available throughout the semester; it is not possible to complete online courses at your own pace. The academic expectations of online courses are the same as face-to-face courses. The difference is that the assignments and activities can be performed from a distance, via computer. Online courses can be completed at a schedule that works for the student as long as prescribed due dates and other requirements of the course are met.

Hybrid Courses are taught partially online and partially in a face-to-face classroom setting. Hybrid Courses reduce the amount of time spent in class on campus by reserving class time for lectures and other activities and requiring most course work to be completed online.
