Frequently Asked Questions
How does the online classroom work?
Upon registration, you will have complete access to all course content. Each class includes a syllabus with information regarding the course textbook(s), learning objectives, and assignments. Once the student has completed the assignments for a particular class, they will then submit them via email for assessment and review.
When does the program start and finish?
It is a completely self-paced online program - the schedule of completion depends on the student.
There is no arbitrary deadline for class assignments, however, it is a good idea to work at a steady pace in order to progress consistently through the program. Following the schedule of one section per month, it is possible to complete the program within 6 months. However, a year would be an ideal timeframe for completion and we encourage you to find a pace that is suitable for you.
How long do I have access to the program?
Students have lifetime access to the program. After enrolling, you have unlimited access to this program for as long as you like - across any and all devices you own.
