Delivery Methods

• In-class instruction: 100% hours of instruction delivered in a classroom or other setting, where instructors share the same physical space as students.
• Distance education: 100% hours of instruction, excluding work experience hours, if applicable, delivered remotely from a BC location.
• Combined delivery: (both in-class and distance): Instruction provided through a combination of in-class and distance delivery. Program may include a work experience component (in-person).

 [50] % of combined program will be provided by distance (online) delivery.

If distance or combined delivery is indicated, the online components are:

• Synchronous, meaning students attend classes virtually in ‘real time’ with instructors and classmates. 
• Asynchronous, meaning students and instructors do not meet in ‘real time’.  There is no live video lecture portion of the program.  Students in a program or course that is delivered asynchronously may move through assignments at their own pace, supported by online resources such as recorded lectures, reading material, assignments and discussion groups. 
• Combination of both synchronous and asynchronous. 

Program delivery is [20] % synchronous and [80] % asynchronous.

Equipment Required

• Students who are studying online will require access to high-speed internet, a laptop and software that enables document preparation, spreadsheets, presentation tools, and graphics.
