How does the Flex Lab work?

You receive a syllabus, text and reference listing, assignment sheet, and other instructional materials. You should allow approximately 36 hours per credit to finish course requirements.

The Flex Lab gives the opportunity to learn at an individual pace. Familiar material can be reviewed quickly, allowing you to focus on new topics. You don't have to sit through lectures on materials already known or be left behind on more advanced topics. An instructor is available to help you on an individual basis when problems or questions arise. However, it is important to understand that this is not a 1:1 tutoring or instruction process.
