Distance Education

Have questions, or need assistance?Call CIE Toll-FREE 1-800-243-6446 (CIE-OHIO)www.cie-wc.edu

Our graduates agree: distance education offers tremendous advantages

over traditional on-campus training.

As a CIE student, you can study on your own time, so you can keep your

present job and “earn while you learn”. CIE lets you tailor your education

to your career goals, so you can focus on just the training you need.

Basic Core LessonsYou will find that most of CIE’s courses are designed around a core of lessons that cover basic theories applicable to many areas of electronics and computer technology.

Courses 11, 14B, and the A.A.S. Electronics Degree, for instance, all contain the same initial 93 lessons that together comprise Course 1B. This is the course that teaches basic electronics, and goes on to increasingly more advanced lessons.

All the lessons inside courses 2C & 3C are included with CIE’s A.A.S. Computer Degree.

Intermediate & Advanced Level CoursesFor those individuals who already possess some electronics knowledge, CIE has designed several specific courses.

Our intermediate level courses include courses 1A, 2, 4, & 5. Course 6, ”Electronics Engineering,” is an advanced level course.

You can pick up where your previous electronics training left off, or update your present skills. These non-laboratory courses can be the answer to upgrading your skills to the desired level.

Associate Degree ProgramsCIE is proud to offer three accredited Associate in Applied Science Degrees where you only pay for the time it takes you to complete the course. These degrees represent a very high level of accomplishment and will provide you with the necessary education to work in a variety of sophisticated electronics and computer careers. Call a CIE Guidance Counselor at 1-800-243-6446 to help you with any questions you may have. (Students enrolled in the Associate Degree programs are required to make weekly contact with CIE’s instruction staff.)

All Courses Build Toward An A.A.S. DegreeFrom beginning level to advanced, all of CIE’s courses earn you credit toward an Associate Degree.

Let’s take an example: If you complete Course 1B, “Electronics Technology With Laboratory,” you will have earned 93 lessons toward the 254 lessons required for the A.A.S. Electronics Degree.

If you wish to enroll in the A.A.S. Degree Program after completing a CIE Career Course, you will receive full academic credit based upon the number of lessons in the career course that you have completed.

A Programmed Approach to LearningCIE has a study method that’s so good, so innovative, it’s patented.

It’s called the AUTO-PROGRAMMED® teaching method, and it did nothing short of setting a new standard for education through distance learning.

AUTO-PROGRAMMED® lessons allow you to learn electronics one step at a time, and you determine the size of the step.

Practical, Hands-On TrainingAs a CIE student, you can train on your own laboratory equipment, which assures you that you can practice whenever you like, and repeat experiments as often as you need, to master them.

On-Line ExamsTake your exams online on our e-grade web site anytime you want - day or night! Your graded exams will be processed and e-mailed back to you within 24 hours.

Textbook Buyback ProgramSome CIE lesson modules include textbooks that qualify for our Textbook Buyback Program.

The program enables you to sell your textbooks back to CIE for tuition credit once you are finished with them.

Personalized Training From A Dedicated FacultyCIE’s dedicated staff of instructors do more than just grade your exams; they help guide you, step-by-step, through your studies and hands-on training. They personally review each written report. They’ll encourage you when you’re doing well, and give you support when you need it. Most importantly they’ll see that every question you have receives careful consideration by one or more members of the staff. You can be sure the response, whether it’s a simple explanation or an in-depth theoretical discussion, will be prompt, courteous, and thorough.

Instructor Chat RoomThe CIE faculty keeps regular office hours where you can talk to them live via the CIE chat room. Simply log on and ask an Instructor a question right from your computer!

Video LibraryWatch a CIE instructor discuss a variety of lessons and hands-on labs in our video library. Log on any time and learn from the comfort of your own home!

Employee Education ProgramsGroup training is available through the CIE Employee Education Program. This program exists to serve employers who have the need to train three or more employees at the same time.

A company can receive substantial tuition discounts for participating in this program and using CIE either as an extension of its own training program or as a substitute for one.

CIE group training is acknowledged and applauded by many companies. They have found CIE’s training programs to be a cost-effective alternative or supplement to national company training programs.

Specialized TrainingIf you need to modify course work in some fashion to accommodate the specific needs of a company training program, we can do that. Consultation with a CIE guidance counselor is necessary to work out the details.

Progress ReportsPeriodic progress reports on each employee enrolled under the Employee Education Program is provided to the employer during training.

A proctored final examination is given – at the company’s option – to assure successful mastery of the subject material.

Getting StartedCompanies interested in getting more information on CIE’s Employee Education Programs should contact CIE’s Industrial Sales Manager at

1-800-243-6446 (CIE-OHIO).

ResourcesThere is no formal campus or classrooms at CIE, but you will find all the educational resources of a traditional residential education center here. We provide the opportunity to purchase optional lab equipment and an array of school items... we publish our own school paper on the internet ... we make membership available to an honor society and professional associations... interactive instructor chat room... lesson grading is available through e-grade... and we honor our own top graduates from the Associate Degree Programs.

Course Description

How The Program Works

As soon as your enrollment into the A.A.S. Degree Program has been accepted, you will receive an Enrollment Confirmation form, which includes a Progress Record. The Progress Record will provide details of your first 12 credit hours, along with the remaining lessons in your program, so you can use it as a permanent record of your grades.

As you progress into your second term of study, CIE will advise you of your cumulative credit hours. All succeeding lesson assignments will be based on the work you have already completed, and the required minimum number of credit hours. If you are applying for academic transfer credit towards the A.A.S. Program, you may have your first term custom-tailored and your credit hour assignment individually prepared to reflect your credits transferred.

Grading System:CIE uses the numerical grading system for all career courses and the A.A.S. degree programs because our instructors believe it is the fairest, most helpful way to show your progress. The minimum passing grade is 70%. If you do not receive a passing grade on an examination, you will be required to review the lesson and those questions you answered incorrectly, and then re-submit the exam for that lesson. (In computing your grade average at any given time, a grade of 70% will be used on exams which have been re-submitted, regardless of final passing score.)

For Associate Degree students it is also important to note that, although you can pass an individual exam with a grade of 70%, you are required to maintain a cumulative average of at least 78% over the course of each term and throughout the entire program. If, at the end of a term, your cumulative average is less than 78%, you will enter your next term under probationary status, which will continue throughout the entire term of study. If your grades do not reach the minimum required average of 78%, we may be forced to proceed with academic dismissal in order to preserve our long-standing tradition of academic excellence.

If you successfully complete your credit hour assignment prior to the end of the 24 week term, you may receive additional educational materials and services to support your accelerated progress. There is never a charge for additional materials and services provided during the term.

If, however, you do not successfully complete at least the minimum number of hours by the end of the term, we may be able to grant you up to a 30-day extension free of charge. But, if you have not completed the minimum credit hours at the end of the 30 days, you may be dismissed for insufficient progress.

In addition to your grade average requirement, Associate Degree students must also complete the minimum number of credit hours for each term, as shown on right:

Minimum Required Term Length Credit Hours 1 24 weeks. 12 2 24 weeks. 12 3 24 weeks. 12 4 24 weeks. 12 5 24 weeks. 12 6 24 weeks. 12 7 24 weeks. 12 8 24 weeks. 12

Proctored Exams

Students enrolled in the Associate Degree programs are required to take a limited amount of Proctored Exams throughout the course.

Students may arrange to have their exam proctored at the CIE office or at another accredited college, university or high school.

A list of suitable proctors together with detailed examination procedures will be sent prior to the scheduled exams. CIE reserves the right to reject a proposed examination proctor.

Student Identity Verification

Before an approved proctor can administer an exam, the student must provide a photo ID to verifiy their identity.

Students must complete a minimum number of credit hours for each 24 week term.

Why study Software Engineering?

As software becomes more widespread in everything from autos to entertainment devices, there is a burgeoning demand for professionals who can design, develop and implement specialized software systems.

According to the U.S. Department of Labor, computer software engineers are one of the careers projected to grow the fastest and add the most new jobs over the 2010-2020 decade.

With a steady flow of C, C++, Java HTML and Visual Basic programming you will graduate with strong problem-solving and analytical skills needed to work independently or as part of a team that designs new hardware and software systems.

Industries such as software publishers, government agencies, manufacturers of computers and related electronic equipment, financial institutions and insurance providers are places where software engineers are hired.

Earn your Degree via Distance Education

This curriculum is specifically designed to educate students who live at a distance from a college and allows them to learn new technology in their own home.

If, as a CIE student, you achieve a 90% grade average in the A.A.S. Degree program, or a 95% or better average in the Career Course, you are eligible for membership in the CIE chapter of Alpha Beta Kappa. This society is known for accepting members only from accredited schools with the highest academic standards.

faculty, staff, and administration are committed to students who can substitute and/or enhance the traditional college classroom with distance education. This method of instruction allows the individual student to obtain an education while maintaining family commitments and present employment or business activites. Some of the unique students CIE serves include those in the military, those being rehabilitated, and those in areas of the world where the access to classroom education involves an inordinate amount of travel. CIE seeks to raise the level of productivity of our students, enhance their employment opportunities, and retrain those whose skills have become obsolete.

Which course should I choose?

If you are a beginner in electronics, you have two options:

A. You can enroll in Course 1B first. It is a lab course and is designed to teach you theory and to give you the skills required of an electronics technician. Upon completion of 1B you can then re-enroll into any of CIE’s other lab courses or the A.A.S. Electronics Degree Program and receive 100% credit for all the work you did in Course 1B.

B. If you are sure you want to get a diploma from a more advanced course or an A.A.S. Degree, you can enroll in that course from the start. You can enroll in 11, 14B or the A.A.S. Electronics Degree course without taking course 1B first. This is a faster route to the advanced diploma or to the A.A.S. Electronics Degree. In the case of the A.A.S. course, you can save on the total cost of the course, since you only pay for the terms it takes you to complete the course.

If you have an interest in computer technology or computer programming you should enroll in either Course 1C, 2C, 3C, 4C, 5C or the Computer Associate Degrees. They are designed for the beginner as well as the seasoned pro.

Does CIE grant academic credit?

Credit may be granted for previous education with A.A.S. Degree students only. A maximum of 80 credit hours, out of the total 106 required for the Electronics Degree & 72 for the Computer IT & Software Engineering Degrees may be given. If you apply for academic credit, indicate that you want advanced standing when you fill out your Enrollment Agreement. Include transcripts or other documentation (such as your DD214 or DD295 from the military) and CIE will evaluate them for credit. Credit is granted by removing certain lessons from the total required for the A.A.S. Degrees. If you have any questions regarding academic credit, contact us at our toll-free number: 1-800-243-6446.

What if I need a course extension?

If you have a legitimate medical or personal reason that prevents you from studying for a period, CIE may be able to extend your course for a nominal fee. Such extensions are solely at CIE’s discretion.

What will CIE’s courses give me?

Most employers are looking for someone they can train on their equipment. They expect you to know the principles and have the skills of a technician when they hire you. That’s what CIE courses are intended to give you.

Are CIE’s credits transferrable?

Transfer credit from CIE to another educational institution is entirely at the discretion of the receiving institution, and CIE does not guarantee complete transfer of credits.

Can I upgrade my equipment?

The equipment that comes with all CIE lab courses is of good quality and is sufficient for the work done in the experiments (with the exception of the computer in Course 1C, 2C, 3C, 4C & A.A.S. Computer Degrees which we do not supply). For students who prefer instruments with upgraded specifications, these are available through the CIE Bookstore.

Are there prerequisites for CIE’s courses?

If you intend to enroll in Course 2, 4, 5 or 6, we recommend that you have some previous training in electronics. If you do not have any previous training, we recommend, but do not require, that you first take course 1B.

Will I need to buy textbooks?

Students who enroll in courses 1C, 2, 2C, 3C, 4C, 5, 6, 14B or the Associate Degrees are responsible for purchasing a limited number of textbooks that are not included with tuition. Please call a Guidance Counselor at 1-800-243-6446 for the current list of textbooks or visit www.cie-wc.edu/textbook_prices.asp.
