Refer to the CCCC Distance Education website for information about getting started in the course. Information about how to login can be found in the CCCC DE Student Guide, which is linked in the "General Information" section on the Distance Education website.

During your first week of class, the instructor will have an online orientation set up in the course. Orientations must be completed by the date advertised in the Student Guide, or you will be dropped from the course.
