FY 2011 Course Schedule will be released 18 May 2010

To view the scheduled offerings for a particular course, select the course code from the below listing.

Most of our online distance learning courses have a rolling admission, which means that they are offered on a continuous basis and enrollment is almost immediate. For some high-demand courses, you may experience a delay – placed in a wait status – for up to 2-3 weeks. Your enrollment will be activated automatically once space is available.

Keep in mind that the schedules listed on this page include all the DAU offerings. Some offerings have been restricted to select organizations based on requirements generated by the components. To see what is available for you, you must view the offerings in your component's registration system. You can access your component's registration system by applying for a course.

On a weekly basis, DAU posts a list of “low fill” classes scheduled. These are course offerings that have available seats and are scheduled within the next 60 days. These seats are available to customers subject to approval of the individual’s component/agency.
