Each class is six weeks in length, with students responding to course requirements as outlined by the instructor. Students may take two courses per each six week module or a total of four courses per semester (12 credit hours). Course methodology is intended to be learner-centered and require a high degree of learner participation and feedback. Semesters are designed to follow traditional fall and spring semesters. Additional summer courses are available for students who need to obtain additional Bible course requirements. Over four consecutive semesters a student can complete the Barclay Online degree completion format in approximately 20 months.
