Course Access & Format
How are these courses structured?
All of our courses are entirely self-study. They include a mix of textbook and article readings, pre-recorded videos, quizzes, case studies, and written assignments.
You can message your instructor through the platform if you have questions, but you complete the coursework on your own time.
How much time does each course take to complete?
Courses are self-paced. Some people finish in a few weeks, others take the full semester. It depends on your pace and schedule.
You can take as many courses as you'd like. Many students take 2–3 per semester during the school year, and some people will take up to 5 during the summer.
When can I enroll for a course? When are the semester dates?
You can register anytime during a semester. If you register in advance, you get early access to materials. Your final coursework is due by the semester deadline. Please note that the Semester must be determined at the time of registration.
