Frequently Asked Questions
-
What are the different online course delivery options?
NHCC delivers online courses in several formats. Click here for more information.
-

Click here to view more information on computer, Wi-Fi, and hotspot resources.
-
What is the difference between synchronous and asynchronous online courses?
Synchronous means you will virtually attend class at the scheduled time. Asynchronous means you will virtually attend class at your leisure, so you can review the course material at any time however you need to adhere to the deadlines.
-
Why are online courses more expensive than in person?
Online courses are more expensive than in person for a couple of reasons. First, North Hennepin is assessed a $4.50/credit fee by Minnesota State to cover the cost of the system-wide licensing of D2L Brightspace (online course management system) and other licensing costs. Second, the additional amount of the differential is used by the campus to a) fund specialized software needed for online courses, b) offset the additional support costs required for online courses and c) provide training to employees. Although NHCC’s online courses are more expensive than in person, we have one of the lowest differential rates of any of the metro area community or technical colleges.
