<div>There are no set hours when you must be online, and we estimate you will need about 15 hours per week.  The instructor will be available to answer participant questions via a private discussion board throughout the period. These are not ‘MOOCs’ (massive online courses) — enrollment is limited, and your instructor will respond to each question that you ask.</div>
