E-course is short for electronic course. Unlike a seminar that is attended in person with an actual presenter, E-course “lectures” are presented via the internet to your computer through E-mail messages sent in a series. Since E-courses are not live lectures, you can “attend” them at any time and view the material at your own pace. Taking an E-course is very similar to reading a manual or book, except that the educational material is viewed on your computer screen. E-courses are divided into several sections much like short chapters in a book. After beginning an E-course, you move from section to section until you have completed the course. Just as with a book, you are free to jump ahead or to go back to a previous section at any time. E-courses allow you to work at your own pace, stopping and starting as many times as you wish. E-courses can be completed all at once, or they can be completed over a period of days or weeks. Therefore, there is no pressure to complete the material at any specific time.
