Technology Enhancement

• Blackboard site

“ I find Myseneca to be one of the best internet programs available to Seneca Students. It contains a webmail option, which helps keep up to date communication with your Professors and fellow classmates, as well as current Seneca news and events to make sure students know what activities are taking place on campus. Myseneca also allows students to access assignments, course information and documents for their courses online. This is a very convenient way for students to keep track of course information and due assignments for each of their classes.”
