The Department of Education has released new regulations that apply to all postsecondary institutions. The online seminar Three New Distance Education Regulations: How to Comply will focus on three that have the most serious implications for online programs: (1) credit hour, (2) student authentication, and (3) last day of attendance.

Learn to

• explain to administrators, faculty, and staff members the three federal rules—student authentication, the credit hour, and last day of attendance (LDA)—and their impact on your programs;
• create policies and evaluate and implement technologies for student authentication;
• develop criteria to determine LDA for online courses and develop student engagement to meet this regulation;
• prepare policies for meeting the federal credit hour rule.

Join your colleagues on Thursday, September 12, from 2:00 to 3:00 p.m. in the Professional Development Center, E. H. Butler Library 181B. Leave with a workable plan for informing administrators, faculty, and staff members about the federal rules and their impact. There was no opportunity to preview this webinar.
