WAYS TO LEARN

Choose Your Own Learning Adventure

At VLACS, you choose how you learn, from traditional coursework to real-life problem-solving, internships, and more.

Choose the Learning Style That Works for You

Whether you learn best through traditionally structured coursework, or something more experiential, you’ll find options that fit your strengths and interests.

About VLACS Courses

VLACS courses allows you to gain new knowledge through reading, watching videos, listening to podcasts, and completing assignments to demonstrate what you’ve learned — all at your own pace, with one-on-one support from your instructor.

About VLACS Projects

VLACS projects allow you to learn through real-world, career-focused experiences. Within the Projects option, you can choose to do a pre-designed project that is provided to you by VLACS, or a customizable project that you create with the help of your instructor and a mentor.

With either type of project, you will demonstrate your understanding by creating a final product such as a report, video, or portfolio. Each task is designed to help you learn a specific competency.
