Welcome!

Continue your education without the need for regularly scheduled lectures.

The online environment allows you to set the pace of your learning while adhereing to the course structure and deadlines. Instructors are available via virtual communication tools such as electronic mail, course chats and discussion boards.

Online students need to be self-motivated and able to work independently.

To take an online course students must have access to a personal computer with a modem and an Internet Service Provider (ISP).

Exams - Important

Please Note: It is the students' responsibility to contact the Ontario Learn coordinator at least two weeks prior to the date you wish to write. The majority of exams are to be completed by the course end date. You should confirm with your instructor the exam deadline. All exams are closed book exams unless otherwise specified by the instructor. Students must bring some form of photo-identification (driver's license is preferable).
