Every course submitted for inclusion on our website is reviewed by the Advisory Board Chair and at least two other board members. For additional information about our current board members, select "About Us" on the navigation bar and then "Advisory Board Members" or click here.
The advisory board members are selected from different disciplines with varied backgrounds and expertise. These members voluntarily contribute their expertise to the course development process and are re-invited on an annual basis to participate on the board.
