An Introduction to Blackboard Vista

At Golden West College, we utilize the Blackboard Vista Learning Management System.

Within this system, each faculty member has customized his or her online class to reflect the skills and knowledge you need to learn, and thus, each class has different components. In this section, we have provided a basic overview for the most commonly used tools.

Please select a topic from the menu at left to continue.

With multiple sections and many general education courses available, online instruction at Golden West College could be the right option for you!
