Online Delivery
The Professional Bookkeeper program can be completed through online courses. Access to the internet and an internet-enabled device is required to participate. Online courses will use Brightspace, Langara's online course management system. Some courses may also use Zoom, a free video conferencing software, to conduct live virtual class sessions. Students should ensure they have their student account information and access to Brightspace prior to the beginning of the course.
Online courses will be delivered in one of two ways:
- Synchronously – Online classes will be held on Zoom at scheduled times. Attendance is required. Additional course information will be provided through Brightspace or other online platforms.
- Asynchronously – There are no scheduled online classes. Coursework will be done at your own pace. Homework and assignments may still have weekly deadlines. Course information will be provided through Brightspace or other online platforms. Exams may be scheduled at set times.

Note: Final exams will be written on campus on the last day of class. There is no option to write the exam online.
Students who live outside of the Greater Vancouver region can make arrangements for a proctor at their own cost in order to write the exam at the scheduled date and time. If you need to arrange for a proctor, submit the In-Person Exam Proctor for Online Courses Form to the program coordinator (csbookkeeping@langara.ca) at least two weeks before the exam date.
