The Introduction to Online Learning Class
Introduction to Online Learning is a non-credit, self-paced class that’s useful preparation for anyone who wants to take an online class at WCC.
Some students must take Introduction to Online Learning before they can register for classes with an online component. To see whether you have to take it, check the pages about how to register for online or blended classes.
Introduction to Online Learning is an orientation course designed to enable students to participate in web-based instruction. The course covers the use of a course management system including logging in, navigation, online testing, and communication tools. Basic computer literacy topics will also be covered. Successful participation in the course will fulfill the computer literacy requirement. This course must be completed within two weeks of registration.
You cannot directly register for Introduction to Online Learning. Instead, you must submit a registration request online. Once your request is processed, which usually takes one business day, you’ll receive further instructions by email.
The class costs $25, which is non-refundable. United Association members have alternate payment arrangements through the UA.
Online Class Full?
We offer blended versions of many online classes. In most cases you just come to school once a week, and you gain the benefit of face-to-face discussions with your instructor and fellow students.

more »What Students Say About Online Classes
“I was very reluctant to take online classes, but because of my various roles as a wife, mother, full-time employee, and student my time was limited…. Online classes have helped with managing my time in these various roles, and have been a true blessing to both my family and my learning experience at WCC.”
