Use of NorthWest Arkansas Community College’s distance learning program continues grow in a time when overall enrollment has been less than optimal, Kate Burkes, director of distance learning, told the college’s board of trustees Monday. Burkes gave an update about the school’s distance learning program at the board meeting Monday afternoon. “The growth in distance learning across the nation has been phenomenal the last 20, 25 years,” said Steve Gates, senior vice president for learning and provost. “NWACC’s story is no exception.” Distance learning has become a huge part of the college’s delivery system, he said. The program provides expanded access for students, Burkes said.
