Registration open for University of the Aftermarket online distance learning courses

Registration is now open for the University of the Aftermarket’s lineup of 20 new online Distance Learning courses for the spring semester.

Each eight-week course is offered in a convenient, flexible, web-based environment that enables busy aftermarket professionals to continue their progress toward an AAP (Automotive Aftermarket Professional) or MAAP (Master Automotive Aftermarket Professional) designation.

Courses start either January 13 or March 17. Check the University of the Aftermarket’s course calendar (www.universityoftheaftermarket.com) for specific course dates. Registration closes January 6, 2014. Each course is $600.

These semester-long courses are led by Northwood University faculty and cover a wide range of business, management and leadership topics of interest to aftermarket professionals. Successful completion of the course awards 3.0 CEUs.

Although University of the Aftermarket students are not required to take exams, they must participate in the class. In order to receive CEU credit, participants must complete all readings and materially participate in all online discussions (log-in and participate in online discussions at least three or four times per week). Additionally, participants must complete all assignments. Grades are assessed as pass/non pass (“C” or better is considered a pass).
