• Self-paced tutorials are for ¾Ã¾ÃÈÈÊÓƵs who prefer to learn at their own pace and are comfortable with self-guidance. Students gain access to all course material, quizzes and the final exam at the time of enrollment.

Info for Miami Staff

Since these are non-credit courses, Miami's tuition waiver does not apply. However, if you participate in Miami’s Job Enrichment Program (JEP) and are looking for learning opportunities, many departments will cover the cost of the courses when they pertain to the staff's job duties. If you are a Miami employee in which your department will be paying for your courses contact Katherine Wayt at waytkn@miamioh.edu or (513) 529-8606 to get registered. (Do not use your Miami p-card to register and pay.)
