 ACCELERATED E-LEARNING COURSES

  • Students are required to provide a current email address.
  • Students may register for one accelerated course only.
  • Students must be in Canada for duration of course as VPN will not be supported for those outside the country.
  • Students must be available to write a final virtual exam on Thursday, July 25 from 9:30 a.m. – 11:30 a.m.  A web camera is required.  The Civics and Careers (CHV2O/GLC2O) classes will not have a final exam.  The final exam for the extended option will be held on August 21 from 9:30 a.m. – 11:30 a.m.
  • Students working online will be expected to adhere to the standard rules of Academic Integrity and follow the Code of Conduct as expected of students in the face-to-face classroom setting.
  • Students taking an online course will be expected to log-in on a daily basis and meet all deadlines.  Students should be able to commit to working on assignments each day.  Participation of approximately 6 hours per day, Monday - Friday is highly recommended for completion of this program (or 3 hours per day for the extended option).
  • Flexibility of an online course allows students to access their course material from anywhere that has internet access and any time during the day or night; however, students may be offered the opportunity to participate in a discussion synchronously, to support their learning. 
  • Once students are registered and enrolled into the on-line environment, they will be able to access their courses at https://durhamrc.elearningontario.ca/
  • Courses are filled on a first-come, first-serve basis.
