What is Competency-Based Education?
Set Your Own Calendar
We understand that life happens sometimes, that education isn’t a “one size fits all,” that it takes a supportive environment, and that achieving a degree is an important milestone regardless of when it happens. With MyWay, new terms start each month, so you can begin when you’re ready. Unlike traditional programs, MyWay works with your schedule. If you need a break from studying for a few days or even a few weeks, there’s no problem and no penalty.
