SPRINGFIELD — Lincoln Land Community College has been named a top college in Illinois for online criminal justice programs by Criminal Justice Degree Hub in its recently published “10 Best Online Criminal Justice Programs in Illinois for 2021.” LLCC is ranked No. 10.

An announcement of the rankings states, “An online criminal justice degree program from one of Illinois’ colleges and universities helps working professionals make advances in their career ... Students who need flexibility in their education due to work obligations are well-served.”

“LLCC offers online options for the associate in arts and associate in applied science degrees in criminal justice,” explains Becky Parton, dean of academic innovation and eLearning at LLCC. “Our faculty receive intensive training in online teaching, and with a low student-to-faculty ratio, our online students receive personal attention in their classes.”
