The course of Study:

This certificate program consists of 20 highly academic video lectures and their related homework, with a total of 80 hours to complete the program (see the video lectures below). We have used high-quality images, illustrations, graphs, charts, and tables to make the lectures easy to understand, enjoyable to listen to, and satisfying to follow.

Students are not allowed to download any video lectures and they can watch and listen to them online only. Nevertheless, students would be able to download and print out the slides/lecture notes in PDF forms. Some extra materials might be sent to students.

We strongly recommend that students listen to one lecture a day, do some extra curriculum studies from references of their choices, and complete the assigned tasks. However, some students might be able to listen to more than one lecture a day.

Application Form:

The academy must receive the application form posted on the website and the supporting documents before account activation.

Homework:

There are two assigned homework for students to complete at the end of each lecture. The homework should not be copied from the lectures. They should be in the form of a short essay combining your understanding of the lectures and your extra curriculum studies.

The homework should be submitted to admissions@caasn.com as attachments. Nonattached homework will be declined. When submitting your homework, the subject of the email should include “your full name and the number of lectures”, e.g. “Abazar Habibinia_lecture 76”. We suggest that students complete the homework right after listening to lectures, not allowing them to be piled up for the last moments.
