Registration is in progress at many participating Kentucky colleges and universities for 2008’s spring session of KET College Courses. The courses begin airing Monday, Jan. 21 and will be available through video-streaming and DVD rental in addition to regular broadcast delivery.

KET’s college credit courses allow students to study at home, even though distance and time might separate them from higher education institutions. Course assignments can be completed at each student’s pace since the televised programs are available for recording, renting or online viewing. Campus instructors facilitate these fully accredited college courses, which may require a few on-campus sessions, and students can communicate with their instructors through e-mail, phone or fax. Upon successful completion of each course, students earn three hours of college credit.

The following colleges and universities are offering credit for some or all KET College Courses this fall: Ashland Community and Technical College, Bluegrass Community and Technical College, Eastern Kentucky University, Elizabethtown Community and Technical College, Jefferson Community College, Kentucky State University, Madisonville Community College, Morehead State University, Murray State University, Northern Kentucky University, Owensboro Community and Technical College, Somerset Community College, Southeast Kentucky Community and Technical College, University of Kentucky, University of Louisville and Western Kentucky University.
