Student Testimonial
In January of 2006 I started here at RCCC. I was first introduced to Telecourse classes at this time. I found the whole Telecourse experience convenient, challenging, and wonderful… I am very proud to say I graduated from RCCC in May of 2010 with High Honors… and that the only way this was possible for me was through the DE program.
