Instruction Methods

Coconino Community College offers three instruction methods to deliver the best possible learning environments for students during the COVID-19 pandemic.

For Spring 2021, we will be gradually reintroducing in-person classes at CCC. Although most of our classes will still be offered online through Zoom and Canvas, we will be making a limited number of classes available to take in person on our Lone Tree, Fourth Street, and Page campuses. Social distancing, masks, and other health measures will be in place to protect students and instructors. If an in-person class that you want to take fills up, we invite you to take advantage of our new waitlist feature to save "a place in line" if a seat in the class opens up.

Frequently Asked Questions

Wait Lists - New information for Spring 2021

Automated Wait Lists are here! Trying to register for a class but it's full?

When searching for courses or attempting to register, you may see that the course is "closed" or "waitlisted". If you see this, you can secure a spot in line by adding yourself to the waitlist for that course. If a spot becomes available in the course it will be offered to the first student on the waitlist. That student will be automatically notified at their CCC student email address and will have 24 hours to register. If the student does not register by the deadline - or decides to drop themselves from the wait list - the spot will be offered to the next student on the waitlist.

For a step-by-step guide on wait listing, check out our Wait List How-To instructions.
