Southeast College in Weyburn is getting ready for the winter semester of the first year University of Regina courses.

Students are able to take their first-year classes in subjects such as education, health studies and pre-social work as well as others at the college.

"Our professors come to our Weyburn campus and we live stream through Skype to our Estevan campus and our Moosomin campus and our students are absolutely loving the technology," said Sheena Onrait, manager of marketing and communications, Southeast College."

Students are able to interact with the technology available in the classroom.

"It really is a wide variety of courses that are really applicable to any first year. No matter what your end result goal is, you're going to have to take some of these first-year courses anyways."

Onrait adds there are tuition and materials costs but people may forget that living expenses can cost thousands of dollars too. This makes taking the first year of courses at home in the southeast in Weyburn, Estevan or Moosomin, as a cost-reducing idea as well.

Southeast college is hoping to boost enrollment numbers and help residents know what the courses that the college provides in this way.

Other courses available include English, Film, Indigenous studies and sociology.
