Information for students

Students use a LMS to manage their course materials, submit assignments, check their learning progress and more.

All courses are in Canvas LMS effective Fall 2025.

As of August 15, 2025, eClass will be placed in read-only mode for all credit and non-credit courses. Students will still have access to their active course content in eClass (read-only) under the current archive policy.
