AOTI001 - Advanced Online Teaching Institute
Course Description
The Advanced Online Teaching Institute (AOTI) is designed for online instructors who want to refine their existing online courses to improve online learning and help students succeed. The course is recommended for intermediate to advanced levels, and while there is no prerequisite, it is recommended that participants take the Online Teaching Institute (OTI) first. The AOTI takes place over 3 weeks, with an expected time commitment of about 4 hours per week. The course is offered in an asynchronous format, which means that there are no live meetings required. After completing the course, participants will receive a Letter of Completion and a Credly badge.
