Proficiency may be demonstrated by attending an Internet Literacy Workshop consisting of 3 one-hour sessions offered during the first three weeks of class.  The 3 one-hour workshop sessions will be held during the evening hours.  Failure to complete this requirement will result in the student's permit to enroll being held until the required skills are demonstrated.

For additional information, the student should contact their Faculty Advisor or the Department Secretary.
