Benefits of Online Learning
Convenience & Flexibility
At Lesley, all online classes are asynchronous. This means that you decide when and where to access course materials and contribute to course discussions. Unlike face-to-face courses, online courses allow you to take time to formulate your thoughts and complete assignments from your favorite coffee shop, on your lunch break, or even on vacation. In addition, our eight-week course schedule means that you won't have to wait a full semester to start your program or move on to the next course.
Community
At the start of each course you'll log in to a private site, where you'll get to know your peers and instructor through discussion boards, email, blogs, and other digital tools. By reading each other's work and exchanging thoughtful feedback, you'll develop a highly supportive learning community.
Rich Resources
Our knowledgeable online instructors provide clear direction and feedback, motivate learning with relevant projects, and will help you develop the skills you need to meet your professional goals. You'll also have immediate access to the latest research, presentation, and multimedia resources.
Career Training
By taking an online class, you'll improve the technical and communication skills that you'll need as you advance in your career. You'll gain practice writing effective email communications, using online presentation tools, and working with teammates all around the world.
