Disney Learning Center?

[YesIStillLoveDisney]

So I have to take online courses while I am in Orlando to keep from getting too far behind but I have a question or two.

First, my school requires that I have a proctor moderate all exams. Is there someone that can do this? Maybe at the learning center?

Second, did you find that you had trouble making time for the courses? I would like to do a few over the course of FA just to keep myself caught up but I am worried I won't have enough time to do both that and everything else.

Finally, did anyone take advantage of the programs offered through the universities for getting credits? What that hard to keep up with?

Thanks

There are Cast Members in the Learning Centers - I'm not sure if they will be able to proctor yours courses though.

I'm here on the Spring Advantage and I'm currently taking 2 classes offered here to earn credits for the school I go to. Once you figure out when your classes are, you just tell your scheduling manager when your classes are and they will schedule work around that. I have time for my classes and work. However, depending on your class, you could end up with a lot of homework. Just make sure that if you do take the classes and get any homework at all, that you do it RIGHT AWAY. For me, the homework doesn't stop coming and I waited so now I'm in a tight situation trying to juggle work, classes, and getting these assignments done. It's not impossible though lol.

I'm pretty sure that the College Education group (the ones that handle all of the courses and whatnot) can set up a proctoring setting for you. Email them to verify this, though.

The education office at Vista Way does exam proctoring.

I am doing the same thing. I will be going to school full-time completely online and taking one course offered at Disney. I am a pretty organized person and will manage my time off accordingly.

Good Luck,

I too am taking online classes both in the summer and fall. I'm in the process of changing majors, so I can't get too far off track. Luckily, they are both in the School of Communication.

I am doing online courses also. So i emailed a the program to see if there was proctoring availabe. They told me yes and they send me the address to give the school so they can send it in to the online teacher. So yes they do.
