All Alfred State College students have been automatically enrolled in the 2025-26 myLearning Readiness Course. This non-credit, non-graded course is designed to help you become familiar with the myLearning Learning Management System (LMS).

The course provides information, skills, and strategies to support your success in the online learning environment. You will have the opportunity to practice submitting assignments and posting to discussion boards in a no-pressure, non-graded setting. Open the course and look around. The main goal is to build your confidence and increase your likelihood of academic success. The course is available as a resource for the entire 2025-26 academic year.

This course is not just for online students. Many face-to-face instructors use myLearning for testing, homework, and other assignments. We believe completing the readiness course will benefit all students.

Take advantage of this valuable resource to set yourself up for success.
