Frequently Asked Questions

How does online learning work at OPIT?

OPIT’s online learning methodology consists of the following components: high-quality asynchronous content, live sessions with the lecturers, always-available teaching assistants and tools to interact with the class.

Asynchronous content consists of video lectures, interactive learning material, slides, and documents, as well as online coding software and simulations. You can access the materials 24/7 on a mobile APP or PC, via our online learning platform Canvas. That way you can fit learning around your own schedule.

Live lessons, instead, are where you can connect directly with the rest of the class and with the lecturers. Case studies, practical exercises, guest speakers, and other activities will all be covered by the lecturers here. Each and every session will also be recorded and made accessible on Canvas.

Additionally, you will have access to Teaching Assistants 24/7/365 and will be able to communicate with other students and your instructors via Canvas and the internal chat.
