Online Learning (OL) provides an environment for students to expand their learning experience beyond a traditional face-to-face classroom setting. LIT is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges to award a variety of certificates and degrees, whether earned on campus or online.

Courses completed online allow students to attend class anytime, from anywhere, through Internet access and email. OL mirrors the traditional classroom expectations by having discussion boards for peer interactions, assignments with due dates and other course deadlines to complete in a virtual setting known as Blackboard.

Blackboard is the Learning Management System (LMS) used for online and face-to-face classes. Students and faculty will access Blackboard through their myLIT single sign on system.

Online courses may require special software or proctoring agreements for labs and/or exams to provide an in-depth and user-friendly experience for learners. This information will be outlined in the course syllabus.
