Welcome to Online Courses at Jefferson Community College!

Here are the directions for accessing your online courses.

1. Start on Time - Online Courses are NOT SELF-PACED!
2. For Summer 2008 Early Session (05/27/08-06/23/08) – you can link your password as early as May 6 th and start doing coursework as of May 20 th – a week ahead of the official start date of May 27th.
   
   Please note: The 4-week classes are 15-week classes compressed into a 4-week time frame. It is estimated that between 30-35 hours of study time per week is needed to succeed in a 4-week class. Due to the accelerated pace, we strongly recommend students to limit themselves to one class during a 4-week session.
   
   For Summer 2008 Regular Session (06/02/08-07/24/08) – you can link your password as early as May 12 th and start doing coursework as of May 26 th – a week ahead of the official start date of June 2nd.
   
   For Summer 2008 Late Session (06/30/08-07/25/08) – you can link your password as early as June 9 th and start doing coursework as of June 23 rd – a week ahead of the official start date of June 30th.

2. The second asks if you’ve registered at JCC (GoArmyEd students register through the GoArmyEd portal).
3. Read the Computer Use Statement and check off the box.
13. Select all your courses. Make sure that you choose the course that includes the section that you are enrolled in. For example, if you enrolled in HIS 151 SJA, you will want to link your SLN password to a course that includes that section number, such as HIS 151 SJA and SEA. If you select the wrong section number, your access will be revoked and it may be too late to join the correct class.
14. Fill in your social security number.
15. Fill in your last name. No spaces, hyphens or unique characters. Your last name on SLN should match the last name on your records with JCC.
