MS Access, Beginning


Welcome to the MS Access, Beginning online course! This letter confirms your
registration for the Winter Term 2008.

Enclosed is the MS Access, Beginning Student Pamphlet Please take the time to CAREFULLY READ THE PAMPHLET -this is your orientation and successful start to the online course.

The MS Access, Beginning Student Pamphlet will answer questions such as:

. What materials will I need?
. How do I access my online course?
. How do I begin the online course?
. What do all the navigation buttons contain?
. How do I submit the assignments, receive my grades, etc.?
. How do I communicate with my instructor and classmates?

MS Access, Beginning is being delivered using the Blackboard online platform. You will
be able to login to your online course beginning on December 29, 2007, to allow you time to become comfortable with the course design. I highly recommend that you access and examine your course, especially the syllabus, before start of the semester since there are assignment due dates.

Especially if you are a first-time online student, it is highly recommended that you attend an orientation on the usage of Blackboard. You do not need to "pre-register" to attend any of the sessions below:

Tuesday, December 18, 9:45 to 1:45

Tuesday, December 18, 5:30 to 7:30

Nicolet College has issued e-mail addresses to all online students. Unless you inform me
otherwise , I will be using the Nicolet e-mail addresses in communicating with you.

If you have any questions about the course, please don't hesitate to e-mail me at jjohnso5@nicoletcollege.edu, and I will get back to you as soon as possible. I look forward to working with you in MS Access, Beginning online!
