Participation in online courses is primarily asynchronous. Course contents can be accessed at any time, from anywhere with an internet connection. The pedagogy is similar to seminar-type classes, wherein the learner evolves in a semi-structured constructivist learning process. Learners work independently on weekly modules and readings designed for analysis, questioning, researching and reflecting. Learners collaborate on certain assignments and discussions as is normally the case in a traditional learning context. The course is designed to facilitate a maximal interchange of ideas and a rich, interactive dialogue among professionals. All useful information will be available on the website in various forms: scientific content, audio-visual documents, hyperlinks, videos, case studies, tests and more.
The tutors will conduct the pedagogy and manage the class.

Each learner will be asked to:
a. converse with peers and the instructor
b. take part in discussions
c. ask questions and offer answers
d. become familiar with research papers

The time required to read, analyze, study, and complete modules and assignments will depend on the learner's level of commitment, time management and overall motivation. The amount of time spent on a course will therefore fluctuate from learner to learner. Students surveyed have reported spending an average of听 4-7 hours per week during the 13-week semester.

No. Since the courses are asynchronous; you don鈥檛 have to be connected to the internet at the same time as the instructor or classmates. You carry out your work autonomously.
You will only be asked to connect at a specific time in the event that the instructor organizes a chat session. In that case, it would be possible to address questions or comments to the instructor, who is able to field them in real-time.
In the case of group assignments, it will also be possible to work synchronously, if this method is more convenient for you.

Yes. Group discussions will resemble the round table or forum format, in which you have access to all previous messages posted by the other learners or the instructor(s), and where you can post a comment, question or message at any time to keep the discussion going. Tutors may employ various strategies to facilitate discussions with and among their class.

Yes. The instructor will supply an email address at which he/she can be reached at. Telephone hours will also be specified at the beginning of the course.

Yes. A course extension is possible with the instructor's permission. If you request an extension it is important to first confirm with the instructor and Student Affairs Coordinator whether the extension will impact your timeline for program completion and/or your ability to register for the next course in the training sequence.

In such a case, the instructor and the Director of Graduate Studies, should be notified and provided with a doctor鈥檚 certificate. A request should be made to either ask for a leave of absence or a withdrawal from the course. Contact the Student Affairs Coordinator to confirm the necessary steps, forms, and approvals.

Only one repeat is allowed. You must send in a request to the Office of Graduate Studies and you will be required to pay certain fees to rewrite an exam. If you fail this exam or another course, you will have to withdraw from the program.

The Student Affairs Coordinator will contact applicants informing them of their successful admission and the course starting date. Each student will receive a welcome package with an access code and password giving him/her access to the website for the relevant course.

The final grade of "F" will appear on the course transcript and no tuition refund will be possible.

A graduate certificate will be granted following the successful completion of all five courses of the program. Each course will also be noted in your transcript.

Any request to withdraw from a course must be made in writing by submitting an electronic form to the program Director. An official withdrawal from a course will result in a 鈥淲鈥� on the transcript. If a person stops attending a course without officially withdrawing, he/she will receive the grade of 鈥淔鈥�.

Yes. A partial refund of tuition fees will be provided in case of official withdrawal before the deadline.
