MODERATED COURSES

When courses start and end?
Courses start on the specified course date mentioned in the course page. Courses are 8 weeks long, but you will have access to the course for 1 year. Make sure to turn in your homework before the end of the 8th week to receive accreditation.

Can I watch the course material when I want?
Yes, you can watch the course material when you want. Each Monday the course material of that week is published. As an accredited student, you need to finish and submit your homework assignments on assigned dates.

How long do I have access to the course?
The moderated courses are open for 8 weeks with students and moderators, but you will have access to the course for a complete year.

Can I choose the courses that I want?
Yes, you can choose any course we offer that you'd like to study. We suggest you follow the suggested tiers (order) for better results. 

Can I download classes to a computer?
NO. The video and audio classes can only be seen or heard through the virtual platform, for which access to the internet is needed. They can not be downloaded. Some of the material can be downloaded such as Keynotes (similar to PowerPoint) slides. Manuals can always be printed once inside the platform.

Can I pay for someone else?
Yes, you can. If you like to pay for a family member, friend, church member, or coworker, please write us before continuing at: info@ufsauniv.com or call us at +1 (754) 400-1184. Office Hours: Monday-Friday from 9am to 5pm (Eastern Time - Miami Time). That way we make sure the correct student will be signed up.  

When is the Google Hangout session?
The Live Google Hangout session with the teachers and students in the course takes place once per course in the evening. (NY Time) (Approximately 1 hour) These meetings are scheduled and the time is communicated to the students. We also have Hangouts sessions with all the students from the university and the directors of the university, if you desire to have fellowship with the online community.

Who chooses the moderator?
The university staff chooses the appropriate moderator for the courses.

Will the student receive a certificate after the course?
Depending on the study style chosen by the student, he or she may be able to receive a certificate of completion per course. For example, moderated courses issue certificate completions if the student has completely satisfied all course requirements.

How technically difficult will this be on a scale from 1-5?
We surveyed our students who have used our courses. Most of them said that the difficulty was a 1, or a 2 at the most! We guide you and make the teaching platform easy to understand through our short training videos. We will teach you everything you need to know!

What systems or technology do I need to have?
All you need is access to a device with an internet connection. As an accredited student, it would be better to have a laptop or desktop to type your assignments. Nevertheless, you can always comment and submit assignments through your iPad or smartphone.

SELF-STUDY COURSES

When can I start?
You can start at any time and take as many courses as you'd like. You can also take moderated courses at the same time as you take self-study courses.

For how long do I have access to the courses?
As an audit self-study student, you will have access to the course for 1 year. However, if you are taking self-study courses in accredited format, make sure to turn in your homework before the 2 months have passed in order to receive accreditation.

How can I take self-study courses as an accredited student and how does it work?
Under your chosen self-study course, you will have the ability to choose the accredited pricing plan. Once you have paid and completed the necessary training, you will be assigned a moderator to help you grade your material. All the homework assignments and other requirements are due at one time before the end of your 2 month study time period. The student's assignments are turned in to the assigned moderator through email. Once the moderator has graded your homework, you will be notified if you have a passing or failing grade. If you pass, your course will accredited to your student profile. 

What is the benefit of taking an self-study course as an accredited student?
Sometimes a student may not be able to take month-to-month moderated courses with their moderator and peers. Allowing the opportunity for students that have missed certain moderated courses enables them to catch up with their peers and give them an opportunity to graduate with them.

Additionally, the student would be able to enjoy a slower study-pace of 2 months compared to 5+ weeks in a moderated courses.
