Online Learning
Black Hawk College has a wide selection of hybrid and online classes and now offers an Online Associate in Arts degree that can be completed 100% online.
Online courses don’t require students to use testing centers or come to campus for any portion. These courses are highly structured and involve frequent online interactions with your instructor and classmates.
Alternatively, students can take a combination of online and in-person classes to earn a degree or certificate. Speak to an advisor to see which combination is right for you!
