High School Online Course Information
The High School College Education Online (CEO) program offers high school and homeschool students the opportunity to enroll in online college courses taught by SUNY CCC faculty. Unlike Accelerated College Education (ACE) program courses students take with SUNY CCC certified high school teachers, CEO classes with SUNY CCC faculty are on the College's online learning management system, Brightspace.
CEO classes allow students to engage with college-level material in an online college class setting and receive instruction from college faculty, enhancing the educational experience and expanding academic horizons.

Navigating Online Learning in the CEO Program
Online courses within the High School College Education Online (CEO) program are delivered through Brightspace. To participate in these classes, students must have access to a computer and the Internet. While some high schools may allocate dedicated class time for students to work on their online courses, this arrangement varies depending on the school and the student’s schedule.
Importantly, most CEO courses are structured as asynchronous, meaning that students have the flexibility to access course materials and complete assignments without being constrained by specific class times. This setup accommodates diverse schedules and learning preferences, allowing students to engage with course content at any time of the day or night.
