| Do I have to take the modules in sequence, or can I take a break and then return to the program? | View More ∇ |
|
While the modules are currently scheduled in sequence, if you take a break you may be able jump back into the program at a later module start date. The only problem you may find is that a few of the modules have an earlier module as a pre-requisite, which you need to complete before registering for the next module. Please contact the Program Coordinator before making a decision regarding missing any of the modules. |

| Can I transfer some university courses to receive credit for the elective modules? | View More ∇ |

| I’d rather take modules on-site rather than online. What modules do you offer onsite? | View More ∇ |
|
This program is designed to be as flexible as the needs of the learner are. Outside of the Orientation Module and the one-week BES 362 course, which are delivered on-site, the rest of the program is currently scheduled for distance delivery through Blackboard. If a critical number of learners desired for a module to be delivered in an on-site format, arrangements could be made to accommodate that request. |

| When should I be ordering books for my upcoming modules and where is the book list? | View More ∇ |
| There is no booklist. All resource materials are in online format. | |
| How much work must I complete in each module to pass the module? | View More ∇ |
| All assignments in each module must be completed. Failure to pass an assignment or hand in an assignment will result in a failing grade (F) in the course. A passing grade for module components is D (50%); however, students must maintain a minimum 2.00 average to remain in good standing and to graduate from the program. | |
| How long do I have to complete the program? | View More ∇ |
| Students have five years to successfully complete all program requirements. | |
| What if I am unavailable during part of one module? | View More ∇ |
|
If the total absence (excused plus unexcused) exceeds 20% of the required participation, a student may be required to withdraw from the module and will automatically receive a grade of "W" (Withdrawal: No credit earned. Not calculated in GPA.). This policy is enforced by all BAppBus:ES Instructors at their discretion on a class-by-class basis. Note: Students exceeding the permitted absence after the withdrawal date automatically receive 0% for the course at the discretion of the instructor. |

| Can I take any of the electives from the list? | View More ∇ |
|
Each cohort is presented with a list of potential electives. Students then vote, and the top selections are the ones that are offered. Students are also able to ask for Advanced Standing for any courses within the program, including electives for coursework completed in other recognized post-secondary programs which match or exceed the BAppBus:ES program courses in content, intent and rigour. To be eligible for Advanced credit, courses must meet the following criteria:
