Student Evaluation of Classroom Course


Here's what students are saying...

The class was great! The work load was appropriate for an online course; it was not too much or too little.
The class was straight forward. I liked the online platform because I work full time and have a child so it made it easier for me to complete the work on my own time.
I love all the departments and resources available to us. CTC is a great school that has a lot to offer Active Duty Military.
I enjoyed the class throughout the entire semester. I enjoyed the free online textbook and appreciated the unbiased and educational authors.
Very flexible for students to conduct online since I live in Austin, Texas, and not in Killeen. Very affordable classes.
