Taking online courses is a great way to reap all of the benefits of classroom learning without being bound by the same daily schedule. This flexibility is the reason more and more students are applying for online programs. Yet despite their growing popularity, online courses still leave some prospective students worried that they won’t achieve the same success as they might on campus.

Fortunately, Faulkner University offers an online program that’s designed to help students stay on top of their workload and monitor their progress. Here’s a look at how our online criminal justice education classes do just that.

But how can you ensure that you’re developing at an ideal pace and grasping all of the lessons coming your way?

Online vs. Classroom Education

If you’re worried about falling behind because you’re not physically entering an on-campus classroom, Faulkner University has you covered. Our online criminal justice program is available through an interactive platform called Blackboard, where students can easily access their grades, review their due dates, and chart their progress. The program also allows professors to upload course materials, such as the syllabus and upcoming assignments, for students to easily access, ensuring you never fall behind.

Available 24/7, Blackboard also allows students to contact their instructors directly if they are ever in need of clarifications or guidance. Professors can also post video lectures that students can follow along with, helping you feel like you’re alongside them in the classroom. And if you want a more personal learning experience, members of our friendly faculty are always willing to make time for one-on-one visits.
