The initial distance learning course implemented at Saint Peter’s College was ECommerce Technology in our MBA program. ECommerce Technology was one of five distance learning courses offered during the summer and fall 2006 semesters. We wanted to start with a small number of courses, determine how we did, and continue with more courses. We used competency assessment worksheets that were prepared that were part of our development methodology to help ensure online course development consistency and success. The worksheets were successfully used to develop course material/content for online teaching. We feel that the methodology implemented was unique and provided value in the course development process. From the five courses developed and implemented for the summer and fall 2006 semesters, our program has grown to thirty (30) course offerings for academic year 2007/2008 (Phase II). Nine of which are course offerings in computer science.
