Note: The Project Management specialization requires the use of Microsoft Project. The software will be provided in trial form, but there is not a Mac version of this software available. Students in this specialization are required to use Microsoft Windows, Windows XP, or Windows Server 2003 or later. Because Mac users may experience difficulty using the software, we recommend the following: (1) Mac users should be prepared to use a PC during this course or (2) Mac users should purchase the appropriate software or hardware to be able to replicate the Windows environment on their Mac.
The courses are delivered in a prescribed sequence. Each 16-week semester includes two consecutive 8-week courses.
