We currently offer two types of online workshops: Blended and Self-Paced. Blended learning opportunities have at least one real-time or face-to-face session with the balance of the material taught online with a facilitator and assignments with deadlines. Self-Paced opportunities are self-directed learning modules that are completely online, require no facilitator, but are still organized to be and intended to be taken as courses. The workshops below will indicate what they are in the location field where it will say: ONLINE — Blended.. or ONLINE — Self-Paced..
