Course-delivery options set at COTC
Students enrolling at Central Ohio Technical College this autumn and beyond will find more flexibility in course-delivery options than ever before .
The health and well-being of students , faculty and staff have been COTC ’ s foremost priorities during the pandemic . Now with COVID-19 protocols easing and only unvaccinated individuals required to wear masks and distance indoors on campus , the college is preparing to welcome more students back to its four campus locations for in-person classes and labs when autumn semester begins on Wednesday , Aug . 25 . But the welcome return of more on-campus classes is only part of COTC ’ s plan to meet student needs .
Flexible course-delivery options Flexible course-delivery options
that allow students to choose their preferred course-delivery method underpin the college ’ s new academic planning . Students need the flexibility to fit their education around their busy lives and individual needs , whether they prefer on-campus classes , virtual or a combination of options . So over the last year , COTC invested substantially in virtual technologies and online course development to support an extensive increase in course-delivery modes .
And while some courses that require hands-on participation cannot be delivered remotely , if students don ’ t initially see a course offered in their preferred delivery mode , COTC is committed to adding the option whenever possible .
“ Our goal is to meet students where they are and to do our best
to offer each student an educational experience that works best for them — allowing them to choose their preferred academic delivery method — whether that ’ s on campus , online or a hybrid model ,” said COTC President John M . Berry , PhD .
To meet that goal , the college will offer classes in five delivery options : on campus , hybrid , hy-flex , remote and online .
Apply for autumn semester
Prospective students still have time to apply and enroll for autumn semester . Apply for free at www . cotc . edu / apply before Wednesday , Aug . 18 . Classes begin Wednesday , Aug . 25 . Class registration is now open and will continue until the first day of classes .
