CONTINUING YOUR HIGH SCHOOL EDUCATION AS A MATURE STUDENT

Earning high school credits through traditional adult learning centers can be time consuming and inconvenient for the mature learner’s busy schedule. With Ontario Virtual School’s flexible online format, you don’t have to put your life on hold to complete our courses! Our asynchronous approach means you can watch lessons and complete coursework at anytime, day or night.

FAQS FOR MATURE STUDENT REGISTRATION

Is Ontario Virtual School (OVS) accredited?

Yes, Ontario Virtual School is accredited. OVS has been inspected by the Ontario Ministry of Education and has met all inspection requirements to be given the right to issue (OSSD) Secondary School Diploma credits. OSSD credits are the same credits issued by all public schools in Ontario, which count towards the Ontario Secondary School Diploma. All of our online high school courses follow the Ontario Curriculum. Ontario Virtual School’s Ministry BSID# is 665804. You can find our accreditation here: Ministry of Education (Ontario) Private School Information Site

How does online learning work at OVS?

Once you register through our website, you will have 24/7 access to your online course. Use your username login and password to access the learning management system. Then, at a pace suitable to your learning, you can progress through the interactive lessons, and practice quizzes. When you are ready you can complete the unit evaluations and submit them into the drop box for your teacher to evaluate and provide feedback. All unit evaluations are completed and submitted online. You can type out your answers, do them on paper and scan them or take a picture of your handwritten work as submission of the evaluations, whatever means you are comfortable with. After you receive a grade and feedback, you can then proceed to the next unit and so forth until the course is complete. At the mid-point in the course, we will mail you a first report card, and upon completion of the remaining units and the proctored final exam you will be mailed a final report card.

How do I know if online learning is right for me?

In most cases, this form of course delivery works well to support a wide range of learning styles. Students should be motivated to excel, have familiarity with basic computer applications (word processer, web browser), and possess the ability to work independently. Remember there is also an Ontario trained and certified teacher assigned to assist, encourage and communicate with you and will be able to help you achieve your goals in the course.

How long does it take to do an online course?

One of the greatest features of online learning is the flexibility it provides in allowing you to customize your schedule to complete the course at your own pace. Course progress is measured on the completion of the assignments, discussions and summative evaluations. You can login to your course and learn at home any time and at any pace. Students are eligible to write the final exam after completing the minimal number of hours. For example: studying a few hours a day will enable you to complete the course in just four weeks. If you require a slower pace you can take up to 12 months to complete a course.

Can I take a course through OVS in the summer?

Yes, our courses are available year-round, meaning you can register and start anytime! During July and August, all new registrations are eligible to complete in as little as 21 days (as opposed to the standard 30 days minimum completion the other 10 months of the year!)
