College of the Siskiyous offers a variety of distance courses taught in two distance modes. Online courses can be taken from any Internet-connected computer, making them a good alternative for those who live at a distance from the campus or cannot be on campus during regular class hours. Some Internet classes are "hybrid" courses, blending online with on-campus work. Please be sure that you can be available for the on-campus portion of this work. Videoconferencing connects several classrooms in the County to offer real-time interactive learning. We currently have video classrooms on the Weed and Yreka campuses, and at Etna High School, Tulelake High School, Butte Valley High School, and the Happy Camp Community Computer Center building.
