Education2Go: Online Skills Courses

Dates:
Courses run for six weeks and you may begin a course in any month. Check the full course descriptions for exact dates.

Time:
There is no required meeting time. You may work on the course at your convenience.

Fee:
All courses are priced at only $85.

In cooperation with a national network of educational institutions, we are offering a selection of online courses on computer programs and applications (and a few non-technical topics!). While these courses do not have a library focus, we feel they'll be useful to anyone who needs to develop these skills.

The courses are not tutorials; they are facilitated by instructors who will respond to your questions and concerns along the way.

If you need help with a lesson, post your question to the course discussion and the instructor or a fellow student will respond.
