Clock Hours / Credit Hours Or Units Amfasoft Corporation only offers clock hours for all its programs and does not convert clock hours to credit hours. Each clock hour is a minimum of 60 minutes/1 hours of instructor -led class lecture. Increment required completing the program The maximum increment a student will be allowed to complete the program is not more than 1.5 times or 150% of the standard length of the program. If a student does not complete the program within that increment time frame, then the student will be dropped from the program. Learning Resources and Procedures Amfasoft learning resource system includes electronic resources, e-books, project data available online for download, intemet research databases, blogs, and subscriptions to technology websites and web forams. As all the programs that are taught at Amfasoft relate to technology vendors, most of our learning resources used by instructors and given to students are available on the internet for student access. For certain courses, Amfasoft has specific license agreements to provide vendor -specific e-books or hard copy books that have both study and lab material. Procedure to Access Learning Resources The learning resources used by instructors and provided to students are available through the internet for student access. Students can use these resources while they are on the school's campus or gain access remotely from home. In addition to online resources, Amfasoft has installed workstations (Desktops or Laptops) with exam preparation software that prepares students for certification exams if they choose to take the tests. These tests can help evaluate the students academic progress in the class and help the student as an assessment tool to check their progress in the class. The learning resources also contact projects that students must complete to graduate certain courses. Instructors can also keep track of the student progress by using these online resources, to check how many labs, assignments, or tests they have taken by utilizing these resources. Standardsof SatisfactoryAcademic Progress All students must maintain satisfactory progress at Amfasoft. A student is required to complete his/her course within the program period to receive a course completion certificate The progress of each student is monitored and graded at the end of each module of a program using individual progress reports that include the cumulative grade. The grade of the student is evaluated in the middle of the course based on in -class assignments, take-home assignments, lab exercises, midterm exams, written slid verbal quizzes/tests, and attendance. Each module in a program is divided into instructor -led class hours, and time spent on reading and lab exercises. At the end of each module, the program's academic progress will be measured for each student. A student should complete half of the clock hours for the course enrolled and have attended for half of the course. To maintain satisfactory academic progress a student must meet the following at all times: • Have a grade of C/70% or better. • At the end of the first academic evaluation period, the student must have turned in all assignments and lab work and completed around 60% of all coursework. The student demonstrates enough motivation and progresses at a satisfactory rate towards completion of the program. • Complete the program within 1.5 times of the published program length. The student will be put on Academic Probation at the start of the next module of the enrolled program if he/she fails to meet the Standards for Satisfactory Academic Progress at the end of the first academic evaluation period.
