Participants will attend four half-day workshops at Oakton but will work through the majority of their selected course module(s) at their own pace, through the Internet. Each participant will compose a lesson or final project to be described to their workshop classmates at the May 4th session.

Modules 1, 2, 4 and 7 award 3 Continuing Education Units (CEUs) credit at a cost of $100 or 1 semester hour of graduate credit at a cost of $175. Modules 3 and 8 award 6 CEUs credit at a cost of $200 or 2 semester hours credit at a cost of $350.
