We offer 3 modes of learning.
Face-to-face
In this traditional mode of delivery, students and instructors meet each other on campus regularly. Also referred to as F2F.
Blended
In this combined approach of both online and F2F learning, students will attend regular F2F classes, while also viewing online lectures and completing online coursework in between sessions.
Live Online (Synchronous)
Live online classes are synchronous events organized in a live virtual meeting room where students and teachers meet to communicate with voice, video, whiteboard. Live online classes require students and instructors to be online at the same time. Meetings and lectures occur at the same hour. All attendees must be online and connected to the internet at that specific hour.
