Online courses are taught by the same qualified instructors who teach the college's traditional classroom courses. The level of coursework, required readings and examinations are the same for online and on-campus courses.
Reservations for online courses must be made by the student taking the course. Training coordinators cannot register other students for these courses. Each student must attest to his or her eligibility for a fee waiver under North Carolina General Statute 115D-5(b)(2).

Employees of other law enforcement agencies are encouraged to take the class to build skills. Training is free for currently employed telecommunicators. Those seeking employment with an agency may also attend; however, class prerequisites include that they be at least 18 years old and provide documentation that they meet N.C. Sheriff's Education and Training Standards Commission requirements, which include a documented medical physical, medical history and a criminal background check.
