Computers and the Internet are here to stay and Long Distance Learning is one of the greatest benefits of the information, communication, and technology age in which we live. Long Distance Learning programs erase the hurdle of time and distance, and allow students and parents to tap into high quality programs and instructors -at a fraction of what it would cost to be physically present in a classroom.

Long Distance Learning programs are designed for students in grades K-12, high school students pursuing dual-credit and college credit by examination, and graduates (and parents) pursuing college courses from home. With curriculum, assignments, lecture notes, and exams, transmitted via e-mail and the Internet, learning from home has entered an entirely new dimension, providing tremendous learning oppo r tunities to homeschooling families.

Each year, Homeschooling Parent Magazine publishes, as part of its January-February issue, a Guide to Long Distance Learning. Over the last several years, this segment of education has exploded in the number of programs that are offered for K-12 and college studen ts. The links below provide you with easy access from the Guide to each Long Distance Learning program.
