Coursework is primarily web-based and asynchronous utilizing a web-based course management system and audio/video conferencing. Courses also include three live course meetings most semesters. Synchronous sessions are always on Saturdays, generally occur once a month, and typically take place between the hours of 9AM-2PM. They provide students the space and time to meet and discuss their courses and projects, as well as receive support and interact with advisors, faculty, and their peers. The web-based course work varies by course and may include asynchronous project-based activities and discussions as well as sessions that may occur via web-based video conferencing or webinars. Meaningful and enriching field experiences are also incorporated into the program.
