As long as you have Internet access, you can take courses with FLVS. While it is possible to take courses with dial-up connectivity, it will take a little longer for pages to load. You might want to print a few lessons and work offline. You can then save and upload work when you are finished. If you have questions or need help, please go here http://help.flvs.net
