Which Program Is Right For You?

Many of our potential students want to know which program of study is best suited for their needs, lifestyle, and future goals and commitments. This page will guide your through a step by step process that will help you determine which university program, mode of delivery, and expected time commitment is best suited to your unique needs.

Step ONE: Do you want Graduate Credit?

Many students ask us the advantages of taking the courses for graduate credit. Here are some factors that would lead you to take the courses for credit:

1. You want to apply the mediation courses to a Graduate Program either now or in the future.
2. Your workplace will reimburse your tuition if it is taken for graduate credit.
3. You would like to take the full three course program and apply it to your Master of Business Administration. This option is available through Colorado Technical University Online.
4. You would like to take the full three course program and gain graduate credit from Colorado State University.
5. You would like to qualify for financial aid for the courses.

Step TWO: What is your timeline for completion?

IADR Global online courses are offered in one of two timelines:

1. 5 ½ week online courses through Colorado Technical University Online offered 8 times each calendar year. Some students prefer this accelerated option in which they can finish the three course program in one semester. Click here to see the CTU calendar.
2. 8 week online courses through Colorado State University offered 4 times each calendar year. Other students prefer this lengthier classroom which stretches the program out over a full academic year.

B. Graduate credit certificate?

There are two universities that offer IADR Global courses for graduate level credit: Colorado Technical University Online and Colorado State University School of Social Work. Colorado Technical University offers graduate level credits that may be transferred directly to their MBA and MSPA online degree programs. Colorado State University also offers students graduate level credits that may be transferred into another program. Credit through both schools is usually transferable to most national universities; however, it is up to students to check with their school to ensure these credits are transferable to the school and program of their choice. Registration for credit students must take place at the registrar of whichever university they choose.
