During this four-week recorded (on-demand) online course, you progress through the entire course as a class; however, you complete the weekly assignments at your own pace and schedule. Weekly assignments typically include reviewing recorded lectures, completing assigned readings and instructional exercises, and participating in interactive discussion forums. The interactive discussion forums - led by the instructor - enable you to explore and apply the course content to your job, receive feedback and guidance from the instructor, and learn from the other class participants.
