Additional Helpful Program Information
Where is this Program Offered?
MaKami College Calgary NE
MaKami’s newest campus is located on the city’s northeast inside Marlborough Mall
This program not only helped me to fully understand the necessary structures & steps of building a curriculum, but it also helped to further improve my confidence levels as an instructor. I now feel I have a much larger repertoire of teaching strategies and resources that will help me to improve my effectiveness in the classroom and my abilities to create and support an inclusive environment. (…) I wish I would have done it sooner.
This was my first online course and although I was very nervous to try a distance learning program I was surprised at the freedom and flexibility this course allowed me. I truly recommend this course for anyone who is working in a learning environment or supervisory role where communication and facilitation is essential. This course has it all.
