Welcome to Online Education

Online education is a type of learning where the student and the instructor are not physically in the same room, but instead use the internet and a learning management system (LMS) to interact with course material. At Suffolk, the LMS used is Brightspace.

Online learning works best for students who are organized, self-directed, strong in reading, writing, and in communicating through technology. Having access to a computer, printer, and reliable internet service is also necessary. You should have time and space where you can do your work uninterrupted. Lastly, you will need to dedicate 10 or more hours each week to an online course. 

There are different modalities for online education. To see a description of each, please see Online Modalities.
