Online learning (Night School and Summer School)

Continuing Ed Online is an educational experience connecting students and teachers through the Internet. Ontario Ministry of Education courses are offered for high school credit for both day school students and adult learners wishing to earn credits in a flexible manner. As part of the Peel District School Board, our qualified teachers are also trained to instruct and communicate with students in an online learning environment.

Learning Online is similar to learning in a classroom even though students are outside the classroom setting. Students still read, work independently, and as a member of a group, complete assignments and interact with their teacher.  Do you have the skills and technical knowledge to be successful in an online course?  Students who are successful in an online course have good time management skills, can communicate clearly and have established study habits.  They are usually:

• self-motivated
• responsible
• well organized

How will students be assessed and evaluated? - Students will be evaluated using a variety of assessments similar to a regular classroom. A number of final exams will be proctored.

How do I get started? - Talk to your guidance counsellor about your choice to take an online course.  Follow the links on the left side of this page to find out more about Online credit classes.

Before each Online course begins, there is an orientation session.  You must submit student information sheet and then receive your login and password.  If you are unable to attend the orientation, the student information sheet must either be mailed in or dropped off at Continuing Education.

If you do not attend the Orientation and encounter difficulties logging on, please call the Night/Summer School On-line Technical Support Helpline at 905-890-1010 ext. 6688.

Courses only run with sufficient enrolment.
