• Changes to Online Attendance - beginning Winter 2012 (Friday, January 27, 2012)
  
  Updated Attendance Policy for Online Students: Due to changes in Federal Regulations, Central Penn’s Online Attendance Policy has been updated for the Winter 2012 term. 

  
  

  Attendance is now tracked through the completion of quality academic work by the new Sunday at 11:59pm EST weekly deadline. Students are no longer required to post weekly attendance threads to the discussion board, but must complete quality academic work, in EACH CLASS, each week, to be marked present.

  
  

  Failure to complete quality academic work by the Sunday at 11:59pm EST weekly deadline will result in being marked absent for that week’s attendance. The consequence for missing 2 consecutive weeks or 3 total weeks is being dropped from the course. 

  
  

  Please read the Online Strategies and Instructor Addendum posted in each of your courses for further clarification.
