Distance Education is a convenient way for students who cannot travel to Norfolk to take classes. Through the use of online, telecourses, and interactive distance learning courses, students are now able to attend college classes in communities throughout the region or in their homes.

Telecourses are offered via video tape series. The student watches the weekly lectures on their television at home and completes the assignments prepared by a Northeast College instructor. The student talks to the instructor individually via telephone as needed to receive additional instruction and assistance.

An additional method of distance education technology is via interactive distance learning instruction. The instructor can both see and hear the student and the student can both see and hear the instructor as well as the other students at the other sites. Sites in Northeast's 20-county service area are on the Northeast Distance Learning Partnership map.

Online courses are offered via the Internet and are available to students anywhere in the world. The student may communicate with the instructor via email, telephone, or face-to-face.
