All course options, whether 2 or 4 weeks, have identical educational content, learning materials, and the same number of assignments. The difference in length of the course is due to the time of year (not the amount of instruction). We know the school year keeps you busy, so we’ve made the course longer during that time to allow you to complete assignments.
