Project Management

Welcome to the Project Management online course! This letter confirms your registration for the Spring 2008 semester.

Enclosed is the Project Management Student Pamphlet. Please take the time to CAREFULLY READ THE PAMPHLET —this is your orientation and successful start to the online course.

The Project Management 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?

Project Management is being delivered using the Blackboard online platform. 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:

• Wednesday, January 16, 5:30-7:30 p.m., Lakeland Campus, Computer Lab
• Thursday, January 17, 9-11 a.m., Lakeland Campus, Computer Lab
• Thursday, January 17, 5:30-7:30 p.m., Rhinelander Campus, LRC Lab
• Friday, January 18, 9-11 a.m., Rhinelander Campus, LRC Lab
• Tuesday, January 22, 11-1 p.m., Rhinelander Campus, LRC Lab

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 .

The online course will be made available to students on January 15; you can start submitting assignments on Tuesday, January 22. If you have any questions about the course, please don't hesitate to e-mail me at watkins@nicoletcollege.edu, and I will get back to you as soon as possible. I look forward to working with you in Project Management online!
