### Courses Formats

Intensive courses are offered either through a blended model or by distributed learning (DL) for students around the globe.

***eResident (eRes)***The eRes format uses a blended model in which students and faculty engage in both online and resident activities that ensure high quality interaction and feedback, student learning and assessment, and academic rigor. Each offering of five (5) weeks consists of four (4) components: Preparation, Seminar, Synthesis, and Assessment.
                        - Preparation: The first week of an eResident course is an asynchronous DL lesson. Students begin by signing in to Bb, retrieving their readings, assignments, and other course instructions. During this *Preparation* week of virtual engagement, students complete the assigned readings, participate in activities, and prepare the assignments due no later than the following Monday when they attend the *Seminar* week in residence. Students who are not prepared for the seminar cannot receive lesson credit toward the final course grade. See the CIC Schedule of Course Offerings for beginning and ending dates of courses.
                        - Seminar: Immediately following the one-week *Preparation* DL lesson, students attend a five-day in-residence *Seminar*. During this full-time week of *Seminar*, students and faculty participate in an interactive learning environment in CIC classrooms at Ft. Lesley J. McNair in Washington, D.C. The *Seminar* is conducted from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, with homework often assigned to prepare for the next day’s lessons.
                        - Synthesis: In the week immediately following the *Seminar*, students and faculty engage virtually in a one-week asynchronous DL lesson designed to synthesize learning and prepare students for the follow-on graded final assessment.
                        - Assessment: Students enrolled for certificate/graduate credit must complete an end-of-course *Assessment*, typically a substantive paper or project. Students may engage virtually with the faculty and/or other students as appropriate on this assessment for two and one-half (2.5) weeks after the last day of the *Seminar*. Normally assessments are due no later than the Monday, two and one-half (2.5) weeks after the last day of the *Seminar* (as noted as the last day of the course offering in the schedule).

*Distributed Learning (DL) *The Distributed Learning (DL) format engages students and faculty virtually over 12 weeks via Blackboard. Most DLs are asynchronous with a few optional live synchronous sessions weaved in for guest speakers etc., most synchronous sessions will be recorded for student who can’t attend.  During the 12 weeks student engage in weekly lessons, assignments and discussion boards. Each course will end with a final assessment which is typically a substantive paper or project that allows students to demonstrate their mastery of the intended learning outcomes. To receive credit for a course, students must be actively engaged virtually in every DL lesson as assigned by faculty.

 

### Course Credits

All CIC eResident and Distance Learning Courses award three (3) graduate credit hours. Courses taken by students in other colleges through the NDU electives system are awarded two (2) graduate credit hours for eRes courses and three (3) hours for DL courses.
