Online education provides an alternative to the traditional classroom-based format, however, it does place more responsibility on the student to be self-disciplined and to apply solid independent study skills. Online courses offered through Cuesta College are equivalent to the classroom-based version in course content, textbooks, required assignments, exams, study time, etc.

Do I need to register to take online education courses? 

Yes. Registration for an online education course is no different than a regular classroom course.
