SISMID Online Modules
There are 4 online modules scheduled between July 7 – July 11. Each online module will open the week prior so students can access asynchronous content. The asynchronous content will include roughly 4 hours of pre-recorded lecture and 2 hours of self-directed work. Students will then participate in 2 days of synchronous, virtual labs, each 3 hours a day scheduled for the week of July 7th. There will be two time slots for the synchronous labs each day. Due to tax restrictions, online modules are only available to learners in the United States, Canada and Mexico during this pilot year. We aim to expand the online program for future SISMIDs. Thank you for understanding!
