Course Description and Competencies
What to Expect
In this course, you will work through three modules of content. These modules are broken into
smaller lessons. Throughout the course, you will be directed to learning resources such as
readings, videos, and exercises. You will mainly access these resources through the use of links.
A heading indicates each learning resource to make it easily identifiable. As you progress
through the modules, lessons, and units of the course, complete the learning resources
provided. Once you have completed the assignment as indicated, return to the course page and
continue your progress.
In some cases, you may need to close or navigate back from a learning resource to continue on
to the next portion of the course. It is recommended that you progress in this manner rather
than continuing directly through the remainder of the learning resource, as some chapters or
segments of the learning resource may not be required.
This is an introductory course, and there is no prerequisite. You will demonstrate competency
through two performance-based assessments.
