How courses get into your account
On this page
How a course reaches your My Courses page depends on how you got it.
You bought a single course
A course you buy on modelteaching.com appears on My Courses right away. Click Launch to start. You have one year of access from the day you registered.
You bought a bundle of hours or credits
A bundle gives you a balance to spend, and you choose your courses from inside your account:
- A Build Your Own PD Bundle gives you PD hours. Spend them with the green Enroll in Course (… hours) button.
- A Build Your Own Graduate-Level Credit Bundle gives you credits. Spend them with the orange Enroll in Course (… credits) button.
The number on each button, for example Enroll in Course (99 free hours), is the balance you have left to spend. You can pick all your courses at once or a few at a time, for up to one year from purchase. See Enrolling with PD hours or Enrolling with graduate credits.
Your school enrolled you
If your school or district bought your courses, your administrator enrolls you, and the courses appear on My Courses with nothing to buy.
