Dear Capitol Tech Community, 

Capitol Technology University strives to provide access, opportunity, and success to students, faculty, and staff of all backgrounds by fostering an inclusive campus environment.

While we continue to navigate the effects of COVID-19 at a distance, we are united by our mission “to educate individuals for professional opportunities in engineering, computer and information sciences, and business.”

Dear campus community,

I hope you are all staying safe and well. As many of you are likely aware, leaders of Maryland, Virginia, and the District of Columbia, have issued stay-at-home orders in response to the growing number of confirmed coronavirus cases.

Hello all,

Capitol Technology University's Emergency Response Team (ERT) is vigilantly monitoring the spread of the Coronavirus/Covid-19 in the D.C., Maryland, and Virginia (DMV) region. After Governor of Maryland, Larry Hogan, announced three confirmed cases of the virus in Maryland on Thursday, March 5, the ERT met and determined that university is at a Level 2 response.

To learn more about the university's Level 2 protocols, including best practices to stay safe and Capitol's actions to protect community members, please click here to read a letter from the ERT to the campus community.

Thank you,

Capitol’s Emergency Response Team

Courses held face-to-face on campus or at other locations will hold exams or assignments during the scheduled class time or exam period. Those assignments or exams will be proctored by the faculty member who is instructing the section. Students who require a “make-up” exam due to extenuating circumstances should expect to be asked to provide documentation to substantiate the extenuating circumstances and must arrange the “make-up” exam with the faculty member as soon as is practicable. Students who receive learning accommodations based on a documented disability which may include extended time for testing and/or assignments or a reduced distraction environment must notify the faculty member of their accommodations prior to the scheduled exam period and may arrange proctoring with the Office of Student Life as needed.

Courses online either asynchronous or synchronous are expected to have at least one assignment or exam which is completed within Learn@ (Canvas). The students will need to sign in to Learn@ with their username and password and complete the assignment while signed in. No face-to-face proctoring is required.

This email is not being monitored. If you have additional questions regarding the proctoring policy or any other academic policy please email academics@captechu.edu."
