Is Online Learning Right for Me?

Online courses require more dedication and time-management skills than traditional classroom learning.

Online Course Orientation

This interactive orientation provides a “how-to” for taking online courses at Wilmington University and for using Canvas in other course formats.  Use this training to become comfortable and competent with the tools that are commonly used in our online Canvas courses. It also briefly touches on hardware and software requirements, and where students should go for technology support. The entire training can be completed in 10 - 15 minutes. It does this by providing on-screen prompts that will show users exactly where to click. This orientation is a virtual simulation that provides users with an interactive step-by-step demonstration.
