Onsite Modality
Students receive all instruction at the school’s campus.
Hybrid Modality
Students enrolling in the hybrid modality will complete the theory instruction online weekly and attend classes on-campus for the completion of laboratory hands—on practice depending on the courses taught each week. Online weekly work consists of assigned theory instruction and activities for the week to be completed through the learning platform. Diverse Training Center online learning is provided on an asynchronous modality, which means students have the flexibility to complete the online assignments in a self-paced manner as long as they are submitted by the weekly submission deadline. With this modality, students complete their work and connect with instructors and peers on their own schedule. Asynchronous learning gives an opportunity to working students to study without attending to their employment responsibilities.
