Online classes are an exciting and convenient way to earn college credit. Online classes at Jones College are managed by The Office of eLearning located in the Academic Support Building on campus. For a list of online courses available through Jones College go to http://class-search.jcjc.edu/. For a list of online courses available through the Mississippi Virtual Community College, go to https://sbcjcweb.sbcjc.cc.ms.us/ET/selfservice/.

Both traditional and online classes provide the same course content. Online classes require an extra amount of self-motivation, time discipline, and independent work. The flexibility provided by online courses accommodates busy lives. Weigh the pros and cons of an online versus a more structured, traditional class setting.
