Flexible and Convenient Mode

Online learning is the predominant study mode. You can complete courses anytime, anywhere. All the content of the on-campus course is available according to your own study and review schedule for a 90-day asynchronous access period per course. This cost-effective option also provides e-mail access to an online faculty member.

Access is possible through Stanford Online, the award-winning Internet delivery program of the Stanford Center for Professional Development. Stanford Online's flexible delivery system makes the curriculum accessible at any time for coursework and review. As with the on-campus courses, participants in SAPM online can take individual courses, or earn a certificate by completing six or more courses. Online participants will also have the opportunity to earn Continuing Education Units (CEUs) from Stanford University and Professional Development Units (PDUs) from PMI.

Convenience: Course videos and presentation materials are streamed directly to each participant's desktop -- at work, at home, or while traveling. Delivery to the participant saves travel time and expense. Unlike the on-campus sessions which only occur a few times each year, the online courses are available on demand, meaning you can begin the program at any time. Each paid online registrant receives 90 days of asynchronous access per course, allowing participants to control their own viewing schedule and repeat lectures as needed.
