Assignment submission is through the online assignment submission system.
- E-Learning
Similar to online courses, except all course materials are mailed to you on a USB instead of accessed on the internet. Assignment submission is through the online assignment submission system.
- Note: not all courses are currently available in online and e-learning forms.
