Training, course development, and design review for online courses take 4-8 months, depending on faculty members' available time. This means that departments will need to plan their new online offerings ahead of the usual semester scheduling cycle to allow enough time for faculty members to participate in the training and course development/design review process.
Proposals for new online classes and sections to be taught in a coming semester must be submitted according to the following deadlines to ensure consideration.
