Hi, During the past weekend, several users experienced disconnection from Chemeketa web sites including eLearn, My Chemeketa, and Newterra. IT has identified this as a problem with the college's internet connection service and have fixed the problem.

Chemeketa Online

The eLearn system has been experiencing brief, intermittent service interruptions throughout the weekend. This means that eLearn users have been logged out of eLearn in the midst of their work, including tests, quizzes and other eLearn tasks. Please take this issue into consideration when communicating with students. This service interruption is also affecting the MyChemeketa and Outlook systems. IT is currently working to determine the source of the problem and solution. We will keep you notified of progress.
