Independent Study Certification Program:
Independent Study (IS) courses provide maximum flexibility and value to our military students. The C4SEM Independent Study program is one of the most viable solutions for our servicemen and servicewomen, who are currently serving overseas or unable to attend classes in person. Once you are enrolled in the course, you will receive a syllabus and your course materials in the mail. The syllabus defines the course requirements, including whether or not the course requires a final exam or paper/presentation. In addition, we will assign an instructor who will provide feedback throughout the course and help you prepare for your final project or exam. Students will have 90 days to complete each course, however, this may be extended, if the student's circumstances change due to deployment or any other valid military-related issues. Course materials are sent upon receipt of the enrollment form, registration, and payment; however, the student is responsible for purchasing the required textbooks. The final Certification Exam will be coordinated and administered by test centers or training officers.

Certification Exam Only:
Only students who met all the requirements for the certification program can choose this option to register for their Final Certification Exam.
