From 12:00 p.m.–3:00 p.m. Eastern

Curriculum can sometimes vary based on something true of the student: alternate General Education requirements due to transfer status or previous degree, lower-division courses waived due to higher courses or test-out, Honors requirements, degree progress messaging, etc. This workshop will focus on using system condition codes to activate or de-activate requirements and sub-requirements based on individual student criteria.

The workshop lasts 3 hours and uses a blended training approach. Individual learning is combined with guided hands-on practice and exercises provided by trainers with real-world degree audit experience.

$350 per person

Discounts available for groups of three or more.
