Online Express Training Courses

Kalamazoo Public Schools Community Education now offers a wide range of highly interactive courses that you can take entirely over the Internet, via Ed2Go at http://www.ed2go.com/kpscomed/. All of the courses include expert instructors, many of whom are nationally known authors.

Once you choose the department and course title you are interested in, select the 'Enroll Now' button. Follow the instructions to enroll and pay for your course. Here you will choose a username and password that will grant you access to the Classroom. When your course starts, return to the Online Instruction Center and click the 'Classroom' link. To begin your studies, log in with the username and password you selected during enrollment.

All courses require Internet access, e-mail, and either Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Internet Explorer. Some courses may have additional requirements.

All courses run for six weeks (with a two-week grace period at the end). Courses are project-oriented and include lessons, quizzes, hands-on assignments, discussion areas, supplementary links, and more. You can complete any of these courses entirely from your home or office and at any time of the day or night.
