Academic Calendar
Kepler College has 4 terms each year. The intensive 10-week certificate courses begin each term. There are also 5-week certificate courses that start at different times during the term. Throughout the year, Kepler College also offers one or two Community webinars each month, and workshops that vary from 2 hours on a single day to 2 hours per week over multiple weeks. Everyone is welcome to sign up for the courses, webinars, and workshops. Only those students who intend to earn certificates or the diploma need to successfully complete the homework and assignments in the certificate courses.
In addition to webinars and workshops that are held at any time, there are regularly scheduled 10-week courses that are part of Kepler’s guided program. You are welcome to begin taking courses in any term. Most students take a single course per term. You are welcome to sign up for any course that interests you or take a series of courses around a particular topic area. To get the most from your course, please set aside 8-10 hours per week for homework and the live meetings.
