Enrollment
Education Pathways’ websites use an enrollment and registration system that interfaces with the Learning Management System. Enrollment is completed by the Licensee who enters their name, email address, cell phone number, occupation code, license number, city, state and zip code. Pre-registration is not required.
The registration fee is collected through Stripe, a secure payment processing system. The Learner does not pay any additional fees after their registration.
Some of the information captured in the registration process is used to verify identification during some of the classes offered.
Attendance
The software allows the Learner to advance at their own pace after spending a pre-set amount of time on each slide. The learner must “attend” from beginning until the end in order to transmit the completion of the class by entering their license number and name.
Timing
Some regulatory commissions and councils require that Learners spend a designated amount of time in each part of a class. These classes are configured to mandate the allocated time using the leaning management system.
The Learner must complete a course in its entirety before activating the mechanism to report ceus or to receive a certificate of completion.
Student Absence or Tardiness
Rules about attendance or tardiness do not apply to the online courses of Education Pathways. Licensees may attend when they like and are not awarded a certificate of completion until they have completed all of the course requirements.
Completion
The class can only be completed by viewing each page from the beginning to the end, listening to the audio clips and completing the activities.
Certificate of Completion that is populated with the information required by the appropriate regulatory body, commission or council is generated at the end of each class. This information is usually the course name, approval number, date of completion, Learner’s Name, license number, occupation code and number of CEUs issued. The certificate is either emailed immediately to the email address provided in the registration process or it is available for immediate downloading and self-printing.
Reporting
Reporting of course completions is done every day in the manner that is appropriate to the state or jurisdiction where reporting is required.
Cancellation Policy
Education Pathways reserves the right to “cancel” a class by removing it from a website because of any issues including technical problems. Learners who have paid for the class but not completed it will be issued a 100% refund within 24 hours of the cancellation.
Education Pathways has never canceled a class because classes are asynchronous online courses and not dependent upon personnel, weather or any of the usual reasons that an onsite class might be canceled.
