WHAT TO EXPECT

What can you expect in an online course?

Just like traditional learning, no two classes are quite the same so don't hesitate to check in with us if you have any questions.

Not all online courses are the same

We have redesigned our online courses to meet the needs of our diverse learners.

Our online courses combine the convenience of online learning with the immediacy of real-time interaction. You will access your course material through our online learning management system at any time and many courses provide opportunities to engage with your class and instructor live during Zoom sessions. Explore the What to Expect section of each course for more details.

Our courses are offered in four online formats providing you with the flexibility to learn by removing the limits of time and space.

	Online Paced  Our Paced courses are a structured and interactive way to learn online. You will engage and learn with your class and instructor through our online learning management system, discussion forums and live sessions. Plan to log into your course regularly as there are weekly readings and set due dates for assignments. There are no mandatory class meetings, and for added flexibility, we record all live sessions to allow you to watch when it is most convenient for you.
	Online Self-Paced  You can learn at a pace that works for you. You have access to all course materials and advance through the course at a pace that fits your learning and lifestyle. This course has a specific start and end date.
	Online with Real-time Learning  Combine the convenience of online learning with the immediacy of real-time interaction. Engage real-time in our virtual classroom during the scheduled weekly live sessions. You have access to course materials and work through weekly milestones at a pace that works for your learning and lifestyle.
	Online Live  Learn live in our virtual classroom. This interactive learning experience lets you engage live and virtually with your class and instructor through our online learning management system. Just like in-person learning, classes are scheduled at specific times.
