Using VCampus

Heritage University uses a Course Management System that allows instructors to create, deliver, and manage web-based components for courses.

Students and faculty may visit http://vcampus.heritage.edu to access the Course Management Home page, campus calendar, and on-line course schedule. Faculty may enhance communication with their students by posting course announcements and pre-course assignments..  Faculty can also view and print "real time' class rosters, send email to enrolled students, and post important course information for student view and downloading.

A password and login are 4required to access specific course information.  All graduate students are encouraged to obtain their logon  and password from their regional office or course professor.  Students may also receive their logon information at the main campus library, student services, or at the graduate office in Yakima.
