ONLINE and Hybrid CLASSES
Our classes are available either in hybrid or modular formats.
Synchronous (Hybrid) Classes:
These courses offer a live, interactive connection to our traditional (15-week) classes where students can take courses alongside others from our main campus and other countries. Our Zoom classrooms allow students to see and interact with their teachers and classmates.

Our modular 8-week courses include prerecorded classes and active interaction with professors and fellow students throughout the term. Students complete and submit their assignments each week, whenever their schedule allows.
