information about the Distance courses and exam preparation here.
The
distance education program works as follows:
- Each course is 8-12 weeks in duration.
- You will receive a set of notes each
week covering the course material via the internet. In addition, you
will receive practice problems and assignments very similar to
the associations' past exams.
- A one hour video-conference session
will be conducted by your instructor each week. The objective of this
session is to assist in solving the assignments as well as answer student
questions that should be sent to instructor early enough prior to the
meeting time. In addition with being able to communicate with the
instructor, you will also be able to communicate with other students in
the same class and watch their questions answered as well. A high speed
internet connection is strongly recommended for this feature.
- Each set of assignments must be
completed and submitted by the indicated date and your completed
assignment will be marked and returned by your instructor.
- Upon completion of the assignments,
you will be sent a final exam. It is recommended that you try to simulate
the actual exam conditions (i.e., no aids and a time limit) when writing
it. You will then submit this final exam for review and marking.
- To gain the most from your course, it
is highly recommended that you participate fully in all discussions and
assignments. Please remember that each course has 8-12 weeks
duration and set dates for assignments to be submitted and a set date to
submit the final exam. You will be informed of these dates when you
receive the course schedule.
