How Online Learning Works

If you're unfamiliar with the concept of online learning, allow us to give you a brief overview. Online courses are an exceptionally accessible, flexible resource whether your goal is gaining new teaching skills, meeting professional development requirements, or advancing your teaching career with a program certificate.

Come to class whenever it's convenient for you by choosing when and where you participate in class. Your course is conducted according to a schedule, but there are no "live" classes to attend. Instead, lectures, coursework, and discussions all take place at your convenience. You choose the place - at home, at school - wherever you have access to a computer, modem, and an Internet Service Provider (ISP). You'll get the same high-quality instruction and course content that you demand, but without the day-to-day obstacles that prevent so many of us from pursuing other goals. With online learning, commuting to campus and paying for childcare are things of the past.
