PDI offers two course format options: flex-time courses and semester courses. Course content is identical between flex courses and semester courses. The main difference between the two options is that you can take up to one year to complete a flex course, whereas you must be finished by the end of the semester for a semester course. Both course options are approved for post-baccalaureate (graduate) credit through UC San Diego Extension.
Flex-Time Courses: A flex-time course is affordably priced at only $149! A flex course including UCSD credit (if you need it) is only $379. Flex courses are often used to satisfy salary advancement or credential renewal requirements. Flex-time courses are approved for post-baccalaureate (graduate) credit through the University of California San Diego (UCSD) Extension. You have up to one year to complete a flex-time course.
