NAHB in Partnership with the Learning Resources Network, Inc.
NAHB has partnered with the Learning Resources Network, Inc. (LERN) to offer a variety of on-demand online courses and certificates through its learning platform, “UGotClass.” It is easy to participate in your online course. After you register, you will be given a Web address to get into your online classroom. You will have a password and use your email address and password to gain access.
Students can register for all courses up to one week after the start date. Courses will stay open for one week after the end date to accommodate those who registered late.
NAHB awards four hours of continuing education per month-long class.
Once inside the online classroom, here’s what you can expect:
These courses are on demand, not live; however, you have instructor interaction through the discussion area.
In the online classroom, you can listen to audio lectures, view slides and even take an optional quiz to test yourself.
You may post written comments any time in the online discussion with your fellow participants and the instructor. Your instructor logs on once a day to answer questions, make comments and respond to comments by you and the other participants. For best learning, you should make one or more comments at two or three different times each week.
Many courses have online readings of up to 20 pages a week.
You may participate as little or as often as you like. The online classroom is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. There are no live real-time requirements or meetings. The content (readings, audio lectures, slides), self-quizzes, and discussion forum are accessible for the entire course, so you can work ahead, or go back and review again, and post comments or questions at your convenience.
