Course Access Period

Access to the course environment, and all content therein, will close within three months of the course open date. (Course open date occurs the week before published start date.) After the course access period, the course environment is closed permanently, and registered participants will no longer have access to the course environment or its content. Please note the exact closure date upon entering the course environment.
