Online courses are typically 8-week, accelerated and completely asynchronous (meaning there are no scheduled or required meeting times), offering full flexibility for students to engage in their own schedule, from anywhere at any time.
This fall, we launched Online Plus courses, which are designed to provide the convenience of online but more aligned to the academic calendar of a traditional face-to-face course (16-week). While these courses will not require in-person attendance, they are designed with options for enhanced engagement through synchronous experiences, which means all participants convene online at the same time. At this time, most Online Plus classes are in foundational courses.
Multiformat courses are a mixture of face-to-face, on-campus experience plus synchronous and asynchronous virtual learning.
