Hello MATC VITA Volunteers,
Summer and Fall 2024 Registration is Opening This Week!
! Priority registration starts this week. View flexible class options and get started: www.matc.edu/registerMATC is committed to providing students with types of classes — formally called “instructional modalities” — that best meet their individual needs, while maintaining high quality standards in all courses.
An instructional modality reflects the way you attend the course such as attending in the classroom, fully online, or a combination of in-person and online for more flexibility. The instructional modalities identified on this page include definitions and other information you should be aware of when considering that type of course.
Please note the definition of synchronous and asynchronous learning as it is crucial to understanding each type:
Synchronous Online Delivery - Students participate in real time via videoconferencing (i.e., Blackboard Collaborate). Students attend at the same time as their instructor and classmates from their home or other location.
Asynchronous Online Delivery - Students participate at their own time and do not participate in real-time videoconferencing. Students have the flexibility to complete coursework within a set period of time, such as weekly.
Continuing program students (enrolled in Spring 2024):
New students, continuing students, or students returning to MATC:
Students not enrolled in a degree, diploma or certificate program can register beginning April 22.
To reduce slowdowns and outages, students will register by their Academic & Career Pathway. Students in a degree, diploma or certificate program and taking classes this semester will have an earlier opportunity to register.
