      Absolutely! Once we get our Feb. 6th courses off and running, I’ll be working on getting the new course dates (and new courses) publicized.

    The “Experiential Mobile Learning” eCourse said there was grad credit available, but it’s not listed above. Was the promise of Grad credit a typo? If not, where is your complete list of courses with credit amounts?

    Thank you for letting us know that this page had not been updated since we announced our new courses. The Experiential Mobile Learning eCourse will be offered for two credits. Sorry for the confusion.
