This report, conducted by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), presents findings from the second nationally representative survey of distance education at the postsecondary level. This survey, conducted in winter 1998–99, collected information about the 12-month 1997– 98 academic year. The first report, Distance Education in Higher Education Institutions (U.S. Department of Education 1997) was based on data from a 1995 NCES Postsecondary Education Quick Information System (PEQIS) survey of higher education institutions. It reported findings on the number of institutions offering distance education courses, the number of distance education courses offered, enrollments in distance education courses, the number of distance education degree and certificate programs offered, and the types of technologies used to deliver distance education. As the first NCES report on the topic, it provided valuable baseline information about the status of distance education in higher education institutions.
