Definitions:

Section Start Date - This is the first day of classes and the beginning of our free trial period. All students, whether verified or unverified, will be granted access to our classroom and may immediately begin work on their first lesson. The only thing you need to do at this time is remind your students to go through our required online orientation in order to begin their studies. You do not need to worry about verifying any of your students at this time.

Roster Verify Deadline - This day marks the end of our free trial period and the beginning of our roster verification grace period. We recommend that you complete all of your roster verification activities on this date. All verified students will be able to continue their studies, but unverified students will be denied classroom access unless you verify them. Any students who try to go through orientation after this day will also be denied classroom access unless you choose to verify them. You may continue to enroll late students after this deadline, but you must remember to verify all late enrollments in a timely manner.

End Verify Grace Period Ends - In order for us to begin our invoicing process, we must close down both orientation and roster verification at the close of business on this day. You will only be billed for students who you have verified. In order to avoid billing errors, we recommend that you double-check your rosters before 5:00 pm (PST) on this day to ensure that you have verified all of your paid students.

Final Exam Release - This is the day when students will be granted access to the twelfth and final lesson of their course. This is also the first day that students can take the final exam, evaluate the course and instructor, and obtain a completion letter. All students will be granted two full weeks from this day to complete their studies and the final exam.

Final Exam Due - This is the end of the normal two-week period that all students have been granted to complete their studies and the final exam.

Student Extension Period Ends Students who have requested an extension to complete the final exam must do so before the end of this day. Classroom access will be denied after this date. We recommend that you wait until after this day to review your student completion and evaluation data.
