Faculty Help Resources : Vista Faculty and Staff Support
The goal of this online support section is to build a learning community of Vista users. This is a place where faculty and staff can not only get help with Vista, but share ideas about effective course design and uses of Vista.
Currently, our primary objective is to consolidate Vista training resources into this one Vista Learning Community. We ask for your patience as we make the transfer.
How to sign up for this course. To sign up for this online Vista course please contact Distance Learning and request that "Faculty Help Resources: Vista- Faculty and Staff Support" be added to your WebCT. Please use your VSU email when completing the contact form. |
