NextStep is a program offered through Northwestern College’s Center for Distance Education (CDE). The CDE offers Bible-based courses that are fully accredited and transferrable to colleges throughout the United States. You’ll be amazed at how your instructors bring a Christian worldview to any subject!
NextStep allows high-school students to take college-level, general-education courses as a stepping stone to their college career. You’ll develop valuable experience using study skills, managing time, and gaining responsibility.
To make these courses affordable to anyone considering college, we offer NextStep students a deeply discounted rate. We encourage you to look into other programs; you’ll discover just what a value this is.
Students are guided through their courses with on-line instructions or printed Course Guides. While some courses have weekly deadlines, many courses can be taken “at your own pace.”
