Here's what our students are saying about our online courses?
"I was surprised at how easy it is to use Blackboard and I appreciated the 24/7 availability of technical support when I needed it. The course was outstanding. The instructor was very knowledgeable and helpful and I ‘met' a lot of fellow teachers online that I enjoyed communicating with." John F., Worcester, MA

"As I prepare for licensure renewal, I am taking advantage of professional development experiences that are meaningful and convenient. The one-credit online courses offered by FSC are ideal. They fit my content needs and don't add to my gasoline bill." Suzanne F., New Bedford

"The course content was just what I needed and the convenience of online learning allowed me to work at my own pace anywhere and anytime I wanted." Kathy W., Shrewsbury, MA

Withdrawal Policy: A student withdrawing from a course must contact the Division of Graduate and Continuing Education and complete the appropriate Withdrawal Form. A grade of "W" is automatically awarded to a student who withdraws. Messages (including emails and telephone calls) either to the instructor or the Division of Graduate and Continuing Education do not constitute withdrawal. Unless a withdrawal form has been completed by the student and submitted to the Office of Graduate and Continuing Education, the student has not officially withdrawn. Non-participation does not constitute a withdrawal. Students who stop participating will receive a failing grade (E) unless they have officially withdrawn. The College reserves the right to cancel any course which has insufficient enrollment, to restrict registration, reschedule or change instructors when necessary.

Refund Policy: Full refund prior to the start date of the course. No refund thereafter.
