Pace Charts

What Is Your Pace?

Choose a pace from the pace chart below for completing this course. If you wish to change pace during the progression of the course, please contact your instructor. Think carefully about the time you have each week to devote to this class and choose your pace carefully.

There are two choices for your pace:

  • Accelerated Pace means that you will complete approximately two modules per month.
  • Traditional Pace means that you will complete approximately one module per month.

Please print out your pace chart page and place it in your notebook. You will want to refer to it throughout the course. Depending on the pace you selected, fill in the months that you have to complete the course. For example: If you start the course on August 1st and you have selected the Accelerated Pace, you would write, August for month one, September for month two, October for month three, November for month four and December for month five.
