Designed to provide a personalized, instructor-led learning experience, this online program incorporates interactive discussion boards, case studies, and other supportive resources to build your knowledge base and confidence. Join a cohort of other students as you progress through 12 weeks of focused instruction, study, and assessment in preparation for your certification exam.

Our Value

This program is not a self-paced, standard online course. We went the extra mile to maximize your learning experience in the following ways:

  • Cohort based format. By starting and ending the course at specific dates you are guaranteed to have a lot of interaction with your classmates.
  • Interactive tools. We incorporated weekly discussion boards, presentations, interactive Jeopardy style games, and student presentations to further enhance your learning and also make it interesting!
  • Instructor support. Your instructor is available and engaged each week, just as if you were in a traditional face-to-face classroom, your questions get answered and feedback is prompt and personal.
  • Flexibility. You can complete the course materials whenever and wherever it is convenient for you. Our online course gives busy professionals the convenience they need without sacrificing quality learning.
