Course materials

Several Training and Development courses also have course materials, which are comprised of copyright-cleared readings packets, and/or assessment instruments or purchased training materials. The fees for these materials are added to regular tuition and collected at the time of registration. The materials are handed out on the first day of class or during the ten-week term. These materials do NOT replace textbooks. Textbooks are required for the classes in addition to the course materials packets.
