DiggySRNA Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 https://www.portagelearning.com/courses is accredited and offers a 3 credit med term course. I took the developmental course and it was accepted by my nursing program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve heard it was a go at your own pace autodidactic course.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiggySRNA Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 It was self-paced and you have 1 calendar year to complete it. There were 8 modules I believe and within those modules you had to answer some questions. At the end of each module you have an exam. You cannot complete multiple modules and exams before the professor graded the previous one...it'll be considered breach of TOS and plagiarism. The whole course took me about 28 days to complete. Pretty easy and I only put in 3-5 hours per module and completed 2 exams per week because I was also working 36-47 hours per week. There was a final paper due at the end.

I have a 1 credit MT course but a lot of schools want 2-3 credit courses. Thanks friend!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiggySRNA Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 They are not proctored which I found odd. No problem, good luck with everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bocc54 Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 UFL has a 3 credit online Health & Medical Terminology course that you can complete at your own pace. 50% of your grade comes from just reading the required online modules and the other 50% of your grade is the final exam. The class was an easy A (I only ever studied during breaks at work) and CASPA also counted it towards my sGPA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hayleyir Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 @bocc54 how long did the medical terminology course take u? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southpaw45 Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Try your local community college. They usually offer 3 hour courses and can be onsite or virtual learning. Mine - I could work ahead up to 1 week ( did an 8 week short semester) completed while I was working 40+ hours a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
