North Carolina Information Highway (NCIH) Classes

The College may offer courses delivered over the North Carolina Information Highway (NCIH). Faculty can use the NCIH classroom to provide instruction to students who attend class on-campus or to students who participate in WPCC courses from remote NCIH sites. Students can also receive instruction from a remote site using NCIH technology. In the NCIH classroom, the instructor and students interact at a scheduled time using television, cameras, and a sound system that allows them to see and hear each other in real-time, as though they were all in the same location.

Courses using NCIH technology are like traditional courses except that the instructor may be teaching from or broadcasting to a remote location. Students in NCIH courses may have classmates at other NCIH sites across the state.

Students register for NCIH courses in the same way they would register for traditional courses.
