Southeast Online Technical Support

Welcome to the Southeast Online Technical Support pages.  As a student enrolled in online courses (sometimes referred to as Web-based courses) at Southeast Missouri State University, you are entitled to obtain free technical support through this Web site.  A support technician will be available to answer your questions during the times listed below:

Regular Fall & Spring Hours
Monday through Friday, from 8:00AM to 5:00PM

Regular Summer Hours
Monday through Friday, from 8:00AM to 4:00PM

Student tech support is done primarily via email, though in some cases the support technician may initiate a phone call to obtain more details about the problem.  Most emails are answered within 30 minutes when received during regular hours (see above).

To make maximum use of this Web-site, we encourage you to take some time to visit the various support pages available (click on the links on the menu bar on the left side of this page):

  • If you are new to online courses in general, we encourage you to visit "The Basics: What is an Online Course" for useful information on what to expect.
  • If you are planning to enroll in an online course, be sure to read the "Requirements" page for up-to-date information on what hardware and software is supported and recommended.
  • Another useful tool is the "Demo Online Class" (under construction) which will give you a pretty good idea of how to navigate and learn in a Web-course.
  • The "Glossary" is a list of frequently used terms that will be useful for you to be familiar with.
  • If you currently need to obtain help, you should visit the "Contact Us" page for guidance on how to solve the most common problems, and for information on how to contact tech support.
