Technology Essentials
Learning how to utilize the college's learning management system, Brightspace (D2L), access computer and network resources, and locate other college resources is essential for all students, but especially for students attending classes fully online. For this reason, we offer a face to face version for students who are able to visit the campus for a few short hours and an online version for students who are not able to or choose not to attend the training in a face to face environment. Technology Essentials is required and will cover the things mentioned previously and much, much more in short non-credit course.
Our Academic Success and Accessibility Director, Kathy Meier, has some fabulous resources for students, both online and face to face, who require disability accommodations. Contact the Disability Services office for more information.
