The Professional School offers individual courses, proseminars, professional certificate programs, certifications, and professional diploma programs on a trimester basis, that is, three 15-week time frames per year. One unit of credit is 15 hours of live attendance in a course or proseminar.
Most courses are held on weekends. Most courses are one or two credit unit courses, 15 hours of live class-time per credit unit. Most courses are divided into two 1-day sessions that are held on Saturdays and/or Sundays. Each of the two 1-day sessions is 7.5 hours, with a scheduled one-hour break along with other short unscheduled breaks held at the discretion of faculty.
Proseminars are three credit units and are usually scheduled as five-hour sessions distributed throughout a trimester on either weekdays or weekends. Students share their practicum assignments with their colleagues during these sessions.
Some courses and all Proseminars have prerequisites or concurrent requirements as shown below.
