learning allows students flexibility, access to new courses, and

Choose from one of the following:
Self-study courses may
be taken at your convenience and pace. These courses are interactive
and engaging learning modules that incorporate lessons, examples,
activities, and quizzes. Each lesson has assessment questions
that can be used to determine your training needs or validate
new knowledge and skills. Self-study courses can be started at
any time, and are available for a 12-week period.
Online instructor-facilitated courses,
provide lessons and assignments with instructor facilitation,
monitor class activity, and assist students for the duration of
the class. This format encourages student-to-instructor interaction
and student-to-student interaction utilizing online messages boards.
Instructor-facilitated courses also include the equivalent self-study
course and the online reference material, so you will have everything
you need at your fingertips. The online instructor-facilitated
portion of the course varies by the course type, but access is
given to all materials for 12 weeks.
