Blended Accelerated Sessions

Blended accelerated classes include seven in-class

sessions, one night per week, plus an online educational

component.

Blended accelerated courses combine the value of

classroom presentation and discussion with the conven-

ience of online learning. each blended course consists

of 7 classes (3 hours and 15 minutes) on site and an

online component.

Both portions of the blended course consist of assign-

ments, readings, research, group work and/or participa-

tion in an online or in- class discussion. The blended

course is designed in a participatory format and is led by

experienced faculty/practitioners. as with every course,

students are encouraged to relate their work experience

to the course topics in order to enhance their learning

experience.

Online Courses

Most online courses (see exceptions below*) have two

start dates, meaning you have a choice of two dates on

which to begin your course. please indicate your start

date when registering by mail or fax. You will then have

15 weeks from that Monday to complete the course

requirements.
