Choosing An Education and Training Program From Saint George

The subject matter does not change by location: instructional methods for technical subjects, curriculum design, assessment, adult learning, and learning technology. What changes is how you take it. Ask each college whether the program holds accreditation from a recognized institutional accreditor, plus your state education agency’s approval for any classroom licensure route, how much of the coursework is delivered online, and which components require you on campus. Credit transfer is decided by the receiving institution and genuinely varies, so request a written transfer evaluation before you enroll.
