Is the Advanced Academics program accredited?
Yes! Advanced Academics is fully accredited by both the Commission on International and Trans-Regional Accreditation (CITA) and the North Central Association (NCA). All of our courses are closely aligned to state standards. We also carry accreditation with the NCAA.

How do I pay for a program like this?
School budgets often do not make room for funding an online program per say, but that doesn’t mean that there are not ways to pay for the program. Many times traditional funding can be used for the online program. For more tips on funding an online program, download our guide to online education here.

Is this only for a certain type of student?
The most successful online student needs to take responsibility for his or her own learning. In any online education program, the student must be a self-directed learner, have internal motivation to manage his or her own learning during the course of study, and have a basic grasp of Internet navigation. Advanced Academics requires students to make the appropriate time for their coursework in order to succeed. With that being said, Advanced Academics has proven to be successful with all types of learners. We know that the traditional classroom does work for some students. From at-risk to advanced students, we have successfully served students in more than 30 states across the country through our online program.

Do you employ highly qualified, certified teachers?
Advanced Academics only hires teachers that are highly-qualified and are certified in the subject areas they teach. All of our teachers have experience in the traditional classroom and know first-hand the challenges of teaching students with various learning styles and capabilities.

How do students communicate with their Advanced Academics teachers?
Students can communicate with their teachers through a variety of ways: instant message, e-mail, and phone. We even offer a virtual whiteboard for those students who learn visually.

What if I want my own teachers to teach the online courses?
No problem. The Advanced Academics program is extremely flexible and provides that solution through our Hybrid package. If you have the teachers who are ready and willing to take on the challenge of teaching online classes, we can get you up and running in as little as 30 days. We’ll even provide training for your teachers.

What if I want to use my own curriculum and teachers, but use your platform?
That is not a problem at all. If you have the available content and teachers, we’ll provide you with our Essentials package. Included is full access to our comprehensive learning management system which incorporates all the tools needed to load curriculum and teach online. We’ll even provide training on how to manage content and provide teaching online.

What additional materials will I have to provide in order for students to take an Advanced Academics course?
Most of the courses offered by Advanced Academics can be taken 100% online, so there is very little need for any additional materials. Some advanced courses may require additional materials.
