Welcome to Distance Learning

Dear Online/Distance Learning Students, 

Welcome to McDowell Technical Community College Distance Learning homepage. Please feel free to explore the options and information.

The Online and Distance Learning program provides access to quality education and instruction for both traditional and non-traditional students through various Distance Learning methods.

Support services for Online / Distance Learning students are very important and we want to make certain that you have the assistance you require when you need it. Distance Learning faculty members provide their students with a syllabus on the first day and inform students of the requirements for the class. Please adhere to the dates and times for all assignments.

MTCC’s orientation link will provide answers to most frequently asked questions about Distance Learning, as does this website. However, instructors, faculty, as well as myself, may be contacted should you have concerns or questions.

Distance Learning Online Orientation

The online learning experience platform is “Open LMS”. You will receive your login info for this system via email. It is recommended that all students attend one of the face-to-face orientations or you may complete the Distance Learning Online Orientation Course in Open LMS. All students will be automatically enrolled in this course so that you can reference it as needed for additional help throughout the semester.

All courses will be available by 8:00 am on the course’s start date. Course start dates vary, so be sure to check your course schedule in Self Service.

It is our desire that you succeed in your experience with Distance Learning. We wish you the very best this semester.

Sincerely,

Joan Weiler
