How Online Learning Works

Log into Canvas, our easy-to-use, cloud-based learning management system using your web browser or the Canvas mobile app. Review the course syllabus, connect with classmates in the discussion portal and begin your studies. If your course utilizes Zoom, you will have access to the link for your course through Canvas.

Retrieve course materials, which may include discussion boards, readings and videos, webinars, and other activities.
Connect with your instructor with questions about your assignments, your progress, or to gain deeper insights on various topics.
Submit your coursework via Canvas for feedback and evaluation. Contact 24/7 technical support if you need assistance with using Canvas.

Technical Requirements

Students must have basic computer skills, including the use of word processing software, email, and the ability to use internet browsers, such as Safari, Firefox, or Chrome. Students are responsible for meeting the technical requirements of Canvas and familiarizing themselves with the Canvas Learning Management System.

Students are also responsible for keeping a copy of all assignments and work submitted, and for being aware of all assignments, due dates, and course guidelines.

Resources for Online Learning

Online Instruction Formats

Live Online: All class meetings are scheduled and held in real-time using Zoom, allowing for live interaction with your classmates and instructors.

Online: Course content is delivered through an online learning platform where assignments are due regularly and you can engage with your instructor and classmates.

Hybrid: A blend of in-person, online or live-online instruction.

I work full‐time, Monday to Saturday, and I'm taking my courses fully online in a different time zone, but I've always been able to get prompt responses and support I need in order to succeed in my classes. I learn dynamic hands‐on skills and practical knowledge which I can apply directly at work.
