Find Online Courses

The Course Search page allows you to filter classes by Delivery Method. You can select hybrid, online with scheduled meeting times, or online with no scheduled meetings.

Tip: be sure to check if the class you are interested in is also offered during a different Term. Many online classes are offered in a 4-, 8-, or 12-week accelerated semester format.

Not sure how to tell if the class you're interested in has an online option?

First, let's look at the different ways a course might be delivered to you:

	Hybrid courses will have online components and required face-to-face meeting times, such as a class session or lab you must attend on campus at a given time. Courses offered in this modality will be marked with an “A” at the end of the section number as shown in this example: ENGL 101 C40A*
	Online (Canvas) courses are online asynchronous, meaning they can be completed on your own time from any location using a web browser and Canvas - which is CSI’s learning management system. Courses offered in this modality will be marked with a “W” at the end of the section number as shown in this example: ENGL 101 C20W*
	Online Coordinated (Zoom): These courses are online synchronous, meaning there are specific meeting times that are attended online by Zoom video conference from any location. Courses offered in this modality will be marked with an “M” at the end of the section number as shown in this example: ENGL 101 C50M*
	Video Conference: This type of course is location based with broadcast video content, meaning there are established sessions when a class must be attended in real-time at a given location. You will need to come to a physical location, such as the Twin Falls campus or an off-campus center in Burley or Jerome. Courses offered in this modality will be marked with a “V” at the end of the section number as shown in this example: ENGL 101 C30V*

How to identify course type and location

You can learn a lot about CSI courses by understanding how course codes work. Each course code has important indicators defining course parameters. Each course is designated by a subject prefix and number and section code. For example, English 101 is a common general education course taken by many students. One section of the course will look like this when you are registering:

ENGL 101A C01W

The important pieces of information contained in this course code are:

ENGL - The prefix tells you this class is in the English department

101 - This number indicates the level of the class

A - This refers to the course type type and location. "A" means the session is "Assisted" by a required corequisite course. Course types may include:

A Assisted (corequisite course required)
L Lab (indicates a lab course)
B Both (section includes both lecture and lab content)

C - Course location is listed before the section number. Course location codes include:

C Twin Falls Campus
J Jerome Center
M Mini-Cassia Center (Burley)
T Twin Falls Off-Campus

01 - This is the section number of the course

W - Indicates the instructional type. "W" means a web-based course, for example. Instructional code types include:

A Hybrid (both online and in-person components are required)
W Online asynchronous (web-based instruction through Canvas portal)
M Online Coordinated (course is taught entirely by Zoom on a given day and time)
V Video Conference (instructor teaches in a physical location and content is broadcast to remote physical locations by video)
When no instructional type is indicated, course is designated as face-to-face
