Online Learning
FVCC online learning happens through Eagle Online to bring college to your fingertips. You and your advisor can build a fully online or partially online schedule to meet your needs, ideal if you are unable to come to campus class times, have a scheduling conflict, or just prefer an independent, flexible schedule.
There are different types of online learning:
- Fully online courses have no requirement for coming to campus or meeting face-to-face with instructors, though are not self-paced. You are responsible for accessing your courses promptly and for meeting course due dates and deadlines.
- These courses will have section numbers in the 80’s in semester schedules.
- Hybrid courses are part in-person and part online. You’ll spend time completing the online requirement as well as some required meetings on campus.
- These courses will have section numbers in the 90’s in semester schedules.
- HyFlex courses offer you the option to choose fully online or fully in-person participation, or a combination of both. Classes occur on a set schedule and are not self-paced, but the manner of attendance is completely up to you.
- Video conferencing courses are remote, live classes conducted at scheduled meeting times over Zoom or ITV (interactive television network between FVCC and partners at other locations.)
