More about online learning at Chabot College

Just like traditional on-campus courses, all online courses:

  • Are taught by an instructor with whom you communicate on a regular basis.
  • Require textbooks, assignments, exams, etc.

Most courses also require you to log into Blackboard to read and submit assignments, take quizzes, participate in discussions, and more. You should expect to log in several times each week.

 You must have email and Internet access before the course begins. Many of the courses fulfill general education requirements; most courses are also transferable (check with counseling) and qualify for financial aid (check with financial aid).

Hybrid Online Courses (Online courses with meetings)
If you enjoy "face-to-face" classes, yet need the flexibility of an online class, a Hybrid course may be right for you. Hybrid online courses require you to attend some on-campus meetings in addition to the work that you complete in Blackboard. If this is the case, those requirements will be listed under each course in the schedule, and are also noted on the course listing on the next page. Be sure that you can attend these required meetings before registering.
