Web Classes

These web classes give you the ability to learn key concepts either on your own or as part of a team.

We keep the technology simple: a web meeting with audioconference that we record for the people who miss it, supported with a class web page to store downloads, reference materials and homework assignments.

Throughout the class, you have access to Katherine to help you complete your homework assignment. Your registration includes the teleconference, recorded audio, additional reference materials and presentation slides.

Here are the offerings for Summer, 2010:
