Assistantship
Ensuring student success is our primary goal. Online students receive the same level of support as students taking classes on campus.
Student Orientation Sessions are held at the start of each semester. During the face-to-face meeting students learn success strategies from online professors and students, and introduced to campus and technology resources. Most sessions run from 5 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. in the College Center Forum.

CAMPUS RESOURCES
Off-campus Library Access is available to all students. Students may access library services and databases directly from the library home page using their Blackboard login.
Reference librarians are also available to help students choose appropriate resources for a particular research topic. Call 508-626-4654 to speak with a reference librarian or e-mail the librarians at: reference@framingham.edu.
Students may also take advantage of the "Ask a Librarian" discussion board in some online courses. By adding this resource, students are placed in direct contact with library staff and receive one-on-one support for their research and writing assignments. Professors who offer this service work with an assigned librarian in advance of the assignment. This program was started in the spring 2005 semester and is used by one quarter of the faculty who teach online.
