Access, Quality, Completion
The Online Education Initiative (OEI) is a collaborative effort among California Community Colleges (CCCs) to increase student success and completion by working together to increase access to quality online courses and support services for students.
GOALS: Ensure that more students can obtain certificates, degrees, and transfer to four-year colleges in a timely manner. Special attention is given to support services that are tailored the diverse needs of community college students.
KEY TO SUCCESS: Strong involvement of stakeholders throughout the CCC system. The OEI Steering Committee is represented by leaders from all facets of our system, including faculty, distance education coordinators, support staff, administrators, and students.
