 These decisions were based, first and foremost, on
ensuring the health and safety of our students and employees. The
college has created a plan that is flexible, safe and effective to
help students achieve their educational goals. ICC will offer Fall
2020 courses in four formats – Online Anytime, Online Scheduled,
Hybrid courses and Clinicals and Internships.
Online Anytime is a traditional online course, providing a
convenient, flexible and student-centered way of learning. Students
log in and complete their course assignments day or night, without
coming to campus.
Online Scheduled is an online class at a scheduled time.
Students log in to their class at the scheduled times and
participate in live, video-supported classes with their instructor
and classmates. This online course format is the most comparable to
the face-to-face, on-campus experience.
Hybrid courses will include online lectures and on-campus
attendance to complete labs or hands-on experiences. For fall, this
will be reserved for courses requiring face-to-face instruction for
hands-on learning. The on-campus experience will include social
distancing, specific entry and exit points, and personal protective
equipment for students and faculty.

Clinical and Internship experiences
will continue at the off-campus locations as long as the hosting partner is
able.
“Offering Online Anytime and Online Scheduled classes allows our
students the structure and flexibility to continue their education in the format
that works best for them,” said ICC President Dr. Sheila Quirk-Bailey. “Our
approach ensures quality educational outcomes while providing our students the
opportunity to continue progressing toward completing their credential. We are
currently adjusting the fall schedule based on these options but encourage
students to enroll now to lock in their preferred classes.”
Regardless of the way students take classes at ICC, all will have access to the
same virtual support and services, such as academic support, counseling, free
tutoring, library services, career advising and more. All these services may be
accessed at icc.edu/virtualservices.
