Teleclasses

How Do I Connect With My Class?

When you register for a teleclass, the instructor will provide you with the telephone number for the class. At the appropriate date and time, you simply dial the number, and within 2 seconds the instructor will hear a beep indicating that you've joined the call. It's that easy, and it works well. Once the instructor has welcomed you and the other students on the call, the teleclass begins, usually at 3 minutes after the hour. The teleclasses are 55 minutes in length, so you'll end about 5 minutes before the hour.

What Are the Costs to Participate in a Teleclass?

In addition to tuition, students incur a standard long-distance charge (from their telephone company) to dial into the teleclasses. This runs about $6 an hour--about equal to the cost of hiring a babysitter and paying for the gas to attend a class outside of your home. There are no added teleconferencing charges of any kind--just the long distance charge to reach our 305 area code conferencing system.

Do I Need to be on the Internet to Participate in these Teleclasses?

You do not need Internet access to participate in the teleclasses, but you will not be able to benefit from some of our other programs (forums, chats, and buddy programs) unless you are online.
