Frequency of Lessons

Instruction takes place online in an asynchronous manner – this means students are not required to be logged into the system at any particular time of the day or week. Rather, students have the freedom to select the most convenient days and times to participate. Discussion boards will close at the end of each week - after 11:59 p.m. on Sunday evenings, students will be able to view all posts after that time but will not have the ability to make additional posts. Only substantive comments made in the discussion boards will contribute towards a student’s participation grade.

Career Services

One of the most valuable services provided by the Carrick Institute is career assistance for its students and graduates. The purpose of this service is to advise students concerning their careers and to assist every graduate in obtaining employment in the field in which the student has received training. Students will work directly with the Director of Career Services who will assist students with resume development, interview preparation, and job search assistance. While Carrick Institute offers assistance to its alumni with managing his/her job search efforts, it does not and cannot guarantee job placement or employment or salary ranges to expect after graduation.
