uiuLive courses: Flexibility to learn from anywhere with a face-to-face connection

uiuLive courses are for students seeking the flexibility to learn from anywhere, but also desire more structure and face-to-face connection than traditional online courses can deliver.

Here’s how uiuLive courses work:

  • Weekly Zoom meetups at a scheduled day and time provide face-to-face connection and support
  • Courses are completed 100-percent online and available via uiuLearn, UIU’s learning management system
  • Students enrolled in uiuLive courses progress through the course together or synchronously, providing more opportunities for communication, collaboration and support
  • Complete coursework and attend class from home, at work or even while traveling
  • Please note: Some courses require proctored exams that can be done via an online proctoring service
