Evening and Weekend Support for Urgent Requests Only

​​​​​​​After the first week of each new term, evening and weekend support is provided for urgent requests only. Urgent requests are those that concern your ability to teach or participate in a class that same evening or weekend (connection, browser, audio or video issues). Only urgent requests will be responded to immediately, and others will be responded to the next business day. Please call 902-457-6601 and explain how you are not able to teach or participate in an online class and your request will be responded as soon as possible.
