COMPLETE THE CCSSE SURVEY TODAY!

From March 20 to April 9, CTC students who have graduated from high school or completed their GED are participating in the Community College Survey of Student Engagement (CCSSE), a national survey of institutional practices and student behaviors. CCSSE results will help CTC better understand the student experience. Students will receive several emails and texts with the link or QR code to the survey. Also, watch for social media posts, flyers and posters and information posted in Blackboard. The survey takes 15 to 30 minutes to complete, and students can earn incentives by participating. YOUR VOICE MATTERS!

Student Evaluation of Classroom Course


Here's what students are saying...

I appreciate having the OERs offered for this course. Not having to worry about paying for expensive books every once in a while is a huge relief. I appreciate that my teacher for this class did not give us a bunch of empty busy work or difficult assignments. I felt I learned very well from the assignments given to me, and none of them were overly difficult or time-consuming.
I love all the departments and resources available to us. CTC is a great school that has a lot to offer Active Duty Military.
Everything I have experienced with this college has kept me going and wanting to continue college, 20 years later.
I was a little bit anxious in starting my first online college course after being in the military straight out of high school. This class made it very easy for me to feel comfortable and encouraged me to take more classes.
I liked that the class was offered online and I was able to work on my own time, even with the required completion dates. I was able to work/read ahead. It incorporated more than just the book by having us think about real world applications that we see and use daily.
