Course Format
Participants will not be required to be online at any particular time and can work at their own pace within each weekly module. The class content will move forward each week allowing the participant the entire week to work through the week's content. The participants can complete the content all in one day or do a little each day as their schedule allows. By offering this information in an online format, participants are provided a learning opportunity that can be accessed either in their own home or office, and at a time of day that works best for their schedules. Assignments and readings will be required each week.
The course is eight weeks with each individual module being 1 week in length.
This course is structured in a manner that allows the participants to develop a national network through interaction with other members of their cohort through virtual chat rooms and discussion boards.

Course Assessment
Each Module will include an assessment component including questions covering material and participation in topical discussions.
