We use private forums to present our classes. The content is typically provided as written lectures, many with photos. Discussion amongst the instructor and students is encouraged. Some instructors give Zoom presentations and/or conduct Zoom Q and A sessions, or may provide links to videos.

Not necessarily, although registration and payment confirmation can take up to 24 hours to process. As a result, we strongly encourage participants to register at least 4 days prior to the class start date.

In general, our classes tend to be more information-heavy than assignment-heavy, but you should get an idea of an instructor’s expectations from the course description and format. The Academe Coordinator suggests setting aside approximately three hours per week to take advantage of asking questions on the forums in real time. Regardless, you’re encouraged to work (and participate) at your own pace.

We tell you up front when the instructors are available to answer questions. Unless otherwise stated, all classes are open (available to download materials) for two months after the class end date. And most instructors are generous with their time, willing to answer questions until the class closes two months after the official end date.

Yes, but only for a limited time. The forum for the class you registered will remain open (available to download content) for two months after the official class end date by navigating to your class using either of the following buttons when you are logged in.
