Learning Online - Student Support

Welcome to the Digital Education Office guidance for learning online.

Here you can find help and support for your digital studies, but remember that the tools you use will depend on what you are studying, so the most relevant support will always come from your school.

Blackboard was recently updated to a newer version. The Digitally Ready course and Learning in Blackboard guides can help you brush up your skills. If your Blackboard courses look the same as last year, you can look at guidance for that version instead. You can also look at Study support and Study skills for more support with your studies.
