The mission of the Community College Baccalaureate Association is to promote better access to the baccalaureate degree on community college campuses through a variety of models. One of these models is distance learning.
For that reason, and because of the widespread confusion and misconceptions about the quality of online universities, the CCBA Board of directors has authorized the formation of a CCBA Distance Education Alliance.
The purpose of the Alliance is to position CCBA as a source of information and a referral for a limited number of affiliated institutions that provide access to baccalaureate degrees online. CCBA works with Alliance members to inform CCBA institutions of the opportunities afforded through, and potential pathways created by, online access to baccalaureate degrees.
See below for webinars relating to distance learning.
The universities that are partnering with CCBA in the Distance Learning Alliance are:
 National American University |
 University of Maryland University College (UMUC) |

 Western Governors University (WGU) |
 Walden University |
