What is eLearning?
The eLearning department at EvCC supports students and faculty in using the college's learning management system, Canvas, and in effectively using other technologies for teaching and learning. For support or questions, you can contact eLearning at elearning@everettcc.edu.
Am I ready for online learning?
Online and hybrid courses can be an excellent choice for many students, but they aren't the best options for everyone. Before enrolling in one of these courses, you should ask yourself these questions:
- Do I have good reading and writing skills?
- Am I comfortable using a computer and the internet?
- Am I able to spend 10-15 hours every week on each course?
- Do I organize my time well?
- Am I self-motivated, goal-oriented, and disciplined?
If you answered "yes" to most of these statements, online courses may be a good option for you.
How do I enroll in an online course?
- Registration policies for online courses are the same as for on-campus courses.
- If you have not yet been admitted to the College you should submit an application for admission well in advance of the quarter you wish to start classes. Visit Enrollment Services' How to Apply page for info on completing the online application, or speak to someone in Enrollment Services (425) 388-9219.
- All new students should request an EvCC Student ID number from Enrollment Services. For more info, call Enrollment Services at (425) 388-9219 or visit the EvCC Enrollment Services webpage
When do online courses begin?
You should plan to log in to Canvas on the first official day of classes for the quarter. All online and hybrid courses should be available for students on this day. To get started with your online or hybrid course, we recommend you read the syllabus carefully, review introductory info or course overview pages from your instructor, and check to see when assignments will be due. If you have questions about the course schedule or expectations, you should contact your instructor directly.
Can I use financial aid for online courses?
Students receiving financial aid may use this funding to pay for online courses. Visit the EvCC Financial Aid webpage or contact the Financial Aid Office at (425) 388-9280 with any questions, prior to enrolling.
What should I do if I am on the waitlist for an online course?
As vacancies occur in a class, the top name on the waitlist will move into the actual class. You are responsible for monitoring your waitlist status and paying for the course if enrolled. If your name is on an active waitlist for an online course, you must obtain permission from the instructor to be admitted to the course. You may either submit a printed email from the instructor to Enrollment Services, or you may ask the instructor to contact Enrollment services directly to give permission for you to be moved from the waitlist.
For further info about registration and waitlists, see the Enrollment Services policies page or contact the Enrollment Services office at 425-388-9219.
How can I take placement tests if I cannot come to campus?
There are several ways to do this depending upon your situation. If one of the following does not apply to you, please contact Christie Eden in the testing center at 425-388-9088.
- Find a place near your location that offers Asset, Accuplacer, or Compass testing. You may be able to test at this location and send your scores to the Enrollment Services office.
- If you have already taken Math and English courses you may request a waiver from the Enrollment Services office.
- You may find a proctor and email Christie Eden for directions.
