Online Student Orientation

The orientation includes information on technology requirements, tips for being a successful online learner, links to campus services and more.

The orientation in Brightspace (login required) is available to you throughout the time you are taking online/hybrid courses to use as a reference at any time. You only need to successfully complete the Online & Hybrid Student Orientation Quiz one time, prior to the start of your first course.

Once you have reviewed all the material in the module there is a short self-check quiz for you to complete. Course instructors may monitor to ensure students complete the orientation before the start of their online/hybrid course.
