The 140 hours of required course work and practicum components can be completed in 6 to 11 months.

Online courses in Part 1 and 2 of the program are asynchronous, meaning there are no live events and you can log in at any time. A minimum of 10 hours per week should be devoted to the online course work, although students are expected to log into the course at least every week, if not daily.

The online courses in Part 1 and 2 are graded on a pass (80% or greater)/fail (less than 80%) basis.
