Notes
Standard course outlines for Information Technology Management (CITM) courses are available on the ITM website.
Asynchronous learning means that you typically will not have to be online at specific times. You will engage with the course material through online tools such as announcements, discussions, and email. Learning will be based on weekly module content and activities you can work through independently. Note: You will have deadlines for assignment submissions, and you may be expected to participate in discussion board interactions with your peers on a regular basis.
Your instructor may also include occasional scheduled sessions for Q&As and other discussion activities using web conferencing tools such as Zoom and Google Meet. Details will be included in your course outline, which will be available on the first day of classes.
On-campus exam requirement: Your final exam (and midterm starting Winter 2025) will be written in person at the Toronto Metropolitan University campus. If you live more than 100 km from the TMU campus, you may arrange to write your exam off campus using an approved off-campus invigilation service. Details on your exam date and how to arrange off-campus invigilation can be found on the Exams for Online Courses webpage.
The prerequisites may be waived if the student has specific professional experience. Registered certificate program students without the course prerequisites who wish to take this course, may contact the Academic Coordinator, Farid Shirazi, at f2shiraz@torontomu.ca for more information.
