Distance and Continuing Education launched a new Web site on Jan. 15 at www.ndsu.edu/dce.

The new Web site includes three areas specific to the individuals Distance and Continuing Education serves. Visitors may want to start at the main homepage to find featured news and events from all areas. For information related to one specific area, users can bookmark the “Information” page that corresponds with their area of interest. The three areas are:

Degree Eligible Activity
This area includes information on degrees and classes offered through NDSU Distance and Continuing Education. Classes are offered online, print-based and face-to-face.

Non-Credit Activity
This area offers personal or professional enrichment programs and classes that are generally not eligible for degree credit. A current schedule of workshops, conferences and continuing education unit opportunities also is found in this area.

Professional Development (K-12) Activity
This area is devoted to K-12 teachers and administrators who would like more information regarding professional development classes offered or would like to offer a class in their school district.

“Updating our Web site was important because it serves as a vital information source for our Distance and Continuing Education students and prospective students. It is often our first point of contact with people from throughout the United States and many countries.” said Lisa Nordick, assistant dean and director.

“Faculty Resource” and “Student Resource” tabs also were added to offer resources and assistance for Distance and Continuing Education instructors and students.
